Carrol Maughan Richards
September 20, 1924 — May 2, 2007
Carrol Maughan Richards, 82, slipped away to heaven on May 2, 2007 after cardiac arrest.
Born Sept. 20, 1924 in Grant, Idaho to Lionel Gunnell and Leona Christiansen Maughan. Married Clyde Rich Richards, July 18, 1946 in the Logan Temple after meeting at a church dance in San Diego during WWII, where she was employed in Navy Payroll.
She graduated from Rigby High and earned an associate’s at Riverside College, Calif. She and Clyde lived in Ithaca, New York; Athens, Greece; Newark, Del.; Davis, Calif.; University Park, Md.; Storrs, Conn.; and Logan, Utah. Everywhere she went, Carrol served those around her. Two times as Relief Society President (Collage Park, Md. and Logan 27th Ward, Utah), Stake Sunday School Board and teacher, Primary and Ward chorister, Temple worker in Washington, D.C. and Logan. She worked as the Mayor’s secretary in Newark and as the Assistant Manager of Billing at Leland Memorial Hospital, Md. She volunteered at Social Services in Logan. She continued to learn, taking Spanish classes in her 70’s.
She was present for the preparation, open house and dedication of the Washington, D.C. temple, and was thrilled to serve lunch to the prophet. She had a keen sense of humor, a strong work ethic, and loved everyone. She sought out opportunities to serve.
She will be sorely missed by her husband, Clyde; son Keith (Karen) Richards, Provo, Utah; daughter Debra Rossi , Murray, Utah; daughter-in-law Renae (Russell) Richards, Salt Lake, Utah; grandchildren: Russ’s daughter Kate Richards; Keith’s children Melissa, Adam and Eric, Debra’s children Joseph, Steven and Jonathan. Survived by sisters Thelma Jensen (Arlington, VA) and Nona Schwarting (Orem, Utah) and aunt DeLon Braunagel (Logan).
