Logan, Utah: Jolene Miller Heaps returned to her Heavenly Father after her courageous battle with cancer. She passed away on February 14, 2008 at her home in Logan.
Jolene met her sweetheart, Lynn R Heaps, at the old Logana Pool and they spent 46 wonderful years together. They lived in Cache Valley their whole lives and have lived in the same home for the last 37 years.
She was the best person anyone knew. Everyone she came in contact with she loved, and they loved her. She was the best example of Christ-like love any of us knew. She spent her days serving her family and friends, as well as serving in many capacities in the LDS Church. For many years she worked at the Logan Temple as a baker, where her famous cinnamon rolls were a big hit.
Jolene loved her family. She centered her life around them, and they adored her. She loved to get together with her family and would do so as often as possible. They would gather, reminisce and laugh at the life they had shared.
She missed her mother, who passed in 2000, very much and looked forward to seeing her again someday. We are sure they are having a very happy reunion now. She is survived by her husband, Lynn R Heaps, her four children, JaLynn Covert, Hyrum, JanaLee Johnson, Providence, Jeffrey Lynn(Caron) Heaps, Smithfield, and Jared Ray(Marissa) Heaps, Nibley, as well as by 9 grandchildren and 1 great granddaughter; siblings Dona Rae Christoffersen, Logan, Karen(Dennis) Taggart, Salt Lake City and Scott(Cherilyn) Miller, Smithfield. She was preceded in death by her Mother, Dona Miller, and her Father, Ray Miller.
Mother, we miss you. We promise to have “Love at home” and look forward to being a family together forever.
