Deon and Lorna celebrated their golden (50 years) anniversary this year. Deon was an active faithful and loving member of the LDS church fulfilling many callings including serving a two year mission to the Great Lakes Mission and as a Temple worker in the Salt Lake Temple for over 30 years. Deon was a hard worker serving two years in the Army, acquired a two-year degree at Bosie Junior College in carpentry and retired as a General Contractor building both commercial buildings and residential homes. He loved working with the Boy Scouts of America and did so most of this life. He loved his wonderful family along with FISHING, hunting and camping. Deon, AKA “Easy” was pretty laid back and easy going with the youth he taught, instructed and mentored and was not in much of a hurry through his life, he pretty much took life as it came.
