Bryce was a friend to all, and he especially loved bringing joy, smiles and laughter to those around him. Bryce was born on January 3, 1980, to Rex Grant and Sarah Ann Carter Robbins. He was welcomed home by an older brother, Jared. Throughout his life he cherished Jared, and his younger brothers and sisters. They love him for his quick wit and enthusiasm for life. Bryce was well-known throughout the community, and he touched many people’s lives with his respectful, caring ways and friendly attitude. He loved being around people and having a good time. He always made a gathering into a party. Blessed with a natural ability for athletics, he spent his growing-up years involved in several sports and hobbies. He played soccer, basketball, baseball and wrestled. Bryce medaled in both triple and long jumps at state track his junior and senior years. His special interests in high school included electronics, computer networking and hanging out with his friends. He participated in swing choir, FHA, FFA, SADD Club and especially enjoyed competing in the History Fair. For several years he was involved in Scouting and achieved the rank of Eagle. He attended several leadership training camps through the Scouting program. He especially loved the silly Scouting songs, and shared them often with his family — even when they weren’t willing listeners. His skateboard became one of his cherished possessions. He learned several stunts and even tried skate boarding down the garage roof. He loved adventure, and found rock climbing enjoyable and challenging. Bryce loved the out-of-doors, and enjoyed camping and hunting. He graduated from Malad High School in 1998, and is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Her daughters were with her at the time of her death and wish to thank the care providers at Mt. Ogden for their kindness and support. She was born September 4, 1917 in Malad, Idaho, to Penelope Mary Williams and Hugh Conway Morris. She is survived by her sisters, Vella Bingham and Eva Jean (Milton) Wilcox; her brother, Ted (Rosemary) Morris; daughters, Kay (Dwight) Tiner, Chico, Calif.; Diann (Kent) Ellis, Layton; Vicki (William) Jackson, Ogden; Penelope (Archie) Phillips, Salt Lake City; and Randy (Douglas) Post, Plain City; 20 grandchildren and 35 great-grandchildren.

Her parents, a sister, and two brothers also preceded her in death. Mary and Fred spent the first 21 years of their married life in Westwood, California where all of their children were born. She never lost affection for Northern California and visited family there as often as possible. Mary loved to travel and up until her health failed, looked forward to visiting friends and relatives in Europe and Asia as frequently as opportunity presented itself. Mary was a loving and generous wife, mother, grandmother and friend. The concept of "family" was central to her life and her nurturing skills of cooking, sewing, and decorative crafts were legendary to family and friends alike. To experience an "olekuchen", "blarney stone" or piece of "tort" gave credence to her skills in the kitchen. Because of her love of family tradition and as the matriarch of a large and grateful family, she will be missed daily - but at Christmas and New Year our hearts will be full of her. She was active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in presidencies in all auxiliaries throughout her life. She also served as a temple worker in the Ogden Temple. She was a master teacher and took great joy in teaching the gospel. Mary was an avid reader and kept current on local and world events. As a lifelong Democrat, she often stated that her friends could honor her at her death by "voting for a couple of Democrats".
