The Salt Lake Tribune, Tuesday, August 14, 2001 Virginia Call Wilkins, beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, completed her journey here on this earth and passed on into immortality, August 12, 2001. Her frail body no longer had the required strength and succumbed to congestive heart failure brought on many years before. What a blessing to her family as they gathered around and witnessed her faith as mortal life quietly slipped away. Each family member kissed her cheek and expressed their tender love prior to her passing, knowing in their heart that he or she was her favorite. In truth, she had no favorites for she loved them all equally. She now has moved through this existence to rejoin her eternal companion, Ralph Moffitt Wilkins. Their love for each other was an example of what love should be. Their theme song in life was "Stop and Smell the Roses" and many nights we have heard them sing "Goodnight, Sweetheart, one more perfect day is through, Goodnight, Sweetheart, I am still in love with you." Without Ralph she was not whole and though she loved us all, there was an infinite void in her life at his passing. Now reunited, they rejoice together with family and loved ones on the other side. In health or in sickness her life brightened everyone she touched. She had a light that could be felt by all and countless friends flocked to her to feel of her warm spirit and love. Her life was one of faith and perfect obedience as she sought continually to do the right thing. Born September 22nd, 1918, in Malad, Idaho, she was the daughter of William Odell Call and Bertha Robinson. She graduated from Weber High School in 1936. She served an LDS Mission to California and became acquainted with and later fell in love and married the love and light of her life, Ralph, who was also serving in California as a missionary. They were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on his birthday, August 28, 1941, and began a long and beautiful life together. They were married 57 years prior to Ralph's passing. Virginia had an innate desire for learning. She returned to the University of Utah to obtain her Bachelors Degree in education and graduated from the University in 1962 the same year that her daughter graduated from high school. She taught elementary school for 22 years until her retirement in 1984. Throughout her life she continually loved to read and study. She was very well informed on current events and politics and especially loved to study about her church. Her life was an example of service. She held many positions of leadership in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She especially loved the Young Womens' Program and at the time of her demise she was acting as a specialist to the Young Women in the area of personal progress. She and Ralph served a second mission to Hawaii as directors of Family History for the Hawaiian Islands. While there they fell in love with this beautiful land and returned many times for recreation and reminiscing. Virginia is survived by her children: Valeen Zumbrunnen (Dean), Ronald R. Wilkins (Kathy); grandchildren, Heidi Eazarski (Bob), Brad, Lori, Amy. Kristen Okland (Brett), Kimberly Kaelin (Abraham), Justin, Jennifer, and seven great grandchildren, her brother John R Call (Betty), sister-in-law, Winnona Adams, and brother- in -law, Wayne (Flora).

Hello! I am looking for information on the marriage of Alva Hall (my grandfather) and Nettie Whalen on Nov 08, 1911 in Oneida County, city of Malad, ID. If someone could let me know the name of the paper most likely to have marriage information in it & if it can be received through inter-library loan. Or if someone can find any information on this marriage, it would be the greatest of all help! My grandfather didn't seem to have much luck in his wives living more than 5 - 7 years before he was off & marrying again. This might have been his 1st of 3 by 1928. Thanks for reading & for any help forth coming! Marty ===== __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!

I suppose I have a lot of step-second cousins as Joseph and Susannah had about 20 other siblings. Are you in contact with any other family members?
