Kathryn (Kay) Jardine Godfrey, age 99, passed away on January 2, 2025. She was a lifelong resident of Clarkston, Utah, where she was born on May 22, 1925. Kay is the youngest of five children born to Andy and Phoebe Griffin Jardine. All her siblings, Barbara Clark, Edwin Jardine, Helen Johnson and Rhea Evans are deceased.

After graduating from North Cache High School in 1943, she married Evan Godfrey in the Logan LDS Temple on June 2 of that year. They were married for 61 years. Evan passed away on August 29, 2004. Throughout her married life, Kay was a devoted wife, an accomplished homemaker and exceptional cook. Her rolls, German chocolate cake and chicken noodle soup were favorites. For 18 years she worked as a cook at Park Elementary in Richmond. Her comforting and generous nature has been a blessing to many of her family and friends in their time of need.

To several generations of nieces and nephews, as well as neighbor children, she has been a second grandma. They loved her hugs and kisses, playing with her box of toys, tea parties and eating her homemade cookies and treats.

Kay was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and has fulfilled many callings. She especially enjoyed teaching and working with the children in Primary and Sunday School where she had many lasting and rewarding memories.

For many years, Kay worked with the Martin Harris Pageant and was an active member of the DUP Martin Harris Camp. Kay and Evan enjoyed traveling prior to his passing. She continued the tradition visiting many places with family. Kay found happiness spending time with her wonderful neighbors and family, listening to audio books, watching the Jazz and tending to her beautiful begonias.

She is survived by many nieces and nephews who loved her dearly. We are lucky to have someone in our lives like her who loved us all.

The family would like to thank the staff at Autumn Care Assisted Living and Sunshine Hospice for their love and care of our aunt during her last days. 

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, January 11, 2025 at 12 pm in the Clarkston 1st Ward chapel, 25 East 100 South, Clarkston, Utah. There will be a viewing prior to the funeral service from 10-11:30 am. Interment will be at the Clarkston City Cemetery.
