He was born March 26, 1914, in Samaria, Oneida County, Idaho, the son of Evan Morris and Deloria Ann Peterson Price. He received his education in Samaria and Malad, graduating from Malad High School. He attended college in Logan, Utah, until he was hurt in a machine shop and had to quit. Theon met and began courting Helen Hutchings, who was teaching school in Samaria. They were married on August 23, 1939, at Driggs, Idaho. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Logan, Utah LDS Temple. Theon helped his father in farming and running a milk route to be delivered at a creamery in Malad. Soon after their first daughter was born, Theon took his family to California, where he worked at Douglas Aircraft. Because of health problems, they moved back to Idaho, where he owned a service station and tire repair business, and also built cabins and had a motel. In the early 1960's, they moved to the Mini-Cassia area, and at the time of death was living in Heyburn. He worked at Ore-Ida, Hall's True Value, and was also a battery distributor for Southern Idaho. Theon was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, where he served faithfully. He and Helen had the privilege of serving as missionaries in the Southern States Mission in Jackson, Mississippi. He was always determined to do what needed to be done, even when his health was failing. He is survived by his loving wife, Helen of Heyburn; his children, Judith McComb of Layton, Utah, Helen Darlene (Bruce) Wheatley of Robin, Idaho, Cheryl Diane (Larry) Garrelts of Layton, Kathleen (Rick) Uriguen of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and Debra (Mike) Seal of Rupert; his siblings, Bernice Lewis and Hyrum Price of Malad, Idaho, Platt Price and Merrill Dee Price of Samaria, Idaho, Eulalia Peacock of Kaysville, Utah, and Anita Williams of Tremonton, Utah; 13 grandchildren; and 27 great-grandchildren.
