Our dear 99 year old mother Barbara Thuerer Stucki passed away in her
sleep on July 6th. She was attended at her passing by her two
daughters Barbara Sharp and Jeanne Nielsen. Her son Clare and his
family had visited with her on Monday. Intermountain Homecare Hospice
provided wonderful care and support to the family during her last
days. Barbara and her daughter Barbara shared a home for several
years after they were both widowed. Her daughter cared for her long
and lovingly.
Barbara was the first child born to Alma and Arverna Theurer. She was
born in Logan, Utah on March 17, 1913, but spent her youth growing up
on the family dry farm which her father operated and was located in
the small community of Blue Creek. Later the family moved into
Tremonton where she lived until beginning college in Logan. She
shared wonderful memories of these early childhood experiences with
her siblings throughout her life.
At 17 Barbara enrolled at USAC which later became USU. She graduated
with a degree in 1934 when she married and started her family. She
taught elementary school for many years throughout Cache County until
retiring
Barbara enjoyed both domestic and foreign travel and visited many of
the worlds wonders with friends and family.
Along with her many qualities she will be remembered for her beautiful
needlework and her wonderful home made candy. Her needlework adorns
the walls in all the homes of her family members and her chocolates
and pecan rolls still provide warm memories at Christmas.
Barbara will be laid to rest in the family plot next to her husband of
67 years, Clarence G. Stucki in the Logan City Cemetery on Monday,
July 9, at 2:00 PM. There will be a brief graveside service.
In lieu of flowers the family requests donations be made to
Intermountain Homecare Hospice along with your prayers and loving
thoughts for our mom.
