Larue Cooper Nelson
July 16, 1923 — April 5, 2006
MILLVILLE, UTAH: LaRue C. Nelson, 82, returned to her Father in Heaven on April 5, 2006. She was born on July 16, 1923 to Mary Alice and Francis Cooper in Providence, Utah. She attended Providence Elementary and graduated from South Cache High School with a perfect attendance record.
LaRue married her true love of her life Herman Nelson on September 9, 1942 in the Logan LDS Temple. Together they made their home in Millville where LaRue lived for 64 years.
The early years of LaRue’s life she devoted herself to being a wonderful wife, a very loving mother to three children. She spent countless hours caring lovingly for her invalid mother. LaRue served as Primary President, Young Women’s President and was a visiting teacher. LaRue crocheted numerous pairs of baby booties for all the newborn babies in Millville 1st Ward as gifts of love. LaRue shared her many talents of crocheting, quilting, painting pictures and her speciality making pies and wedding cakes for friends, neighbors, family and church members. LaRue was the pure love of Christ. She was a dietician and a cook for Head Start for 10 years. She was happiest when she could cook for her family and share her recipes. She felt honored to prepare and cook for the annual Nelson Memorial Day celebration for nearly 50 years.
LaRue was a very special mother, grandmother, neighbor and friend to everyone she knew. Even through her pain and struggle with diabetes LaRue was cheerful and courageous throughout her dialysis treatments. Her passing on will be greatly felt in the hearts of those who love her dearly.
She is survived by her daughter, Linda and Craig Ebert, her sons, Larry and Charlene Nelson and John Nelson, seven grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her husband, two sisters, May and June, one brother, Earl Cooper and a grandson, Chad Craig Ebert.
