TARA LYNNE SEIGENBERG
Our beloved daughter, sister, aunt and friend, Tara Lynne Seigenberg, 21, returned to the arms of her Heavenly Father on April 13, 2006 due to unexpected medical complications.

Tara was born on June 20, 1984 in Provo, Utah to Russell and Nancy Seigenberg. Growing up in Logan, Utah, Tara obtained her education at Adams Elementary School, Logan Middle School, and Logan High School. After completing her studies, Tara spent several years working and skiing at Alta Ski Resort in Little Cottonwood Canyon. She also spent time living and working in Logan, Utah and Park City, Utah.

Tara loved life. Friends and family will always remember the example Tara set of making the most out of each and every day. She was a talented, determined, and fearless skier. Tara liked to relate exciting, often times harrowing, stories of catching "big air" and skiing in the backcountry to her much less adventurous family. She was passionate about the outdoors and also loved hiking, biking, rock climbing and camping. She was a talented musician, photographer, writer, and the family computer technician. She never got caught up in the trivial matters of this life, and found true happiness in the simple things of the earth.

Tara had a constant thirst for knowledge. She enjoyed reading books on natural healing, philosophy, and spirituality. She was both philosophical and analytical, a master communicator who loved to talk and listen to anyone. From the time she was a small child she could carry on captivating discussions with people of all ages. She was inquisitive and independent and had a deep need to discover everything for her self.

The essence of Tara was her happy disposition and easygoing personality. Beautiful, inside and out, Tara embraced the people that were dear to her. Tara was always true and loyal to her family and friends. She enjoyed spending time with her family and especially loved playing and caring for her two nieces, Leah and Eva. Tara was a true friend and was often found listening to and comforting others. She had a great love of animals and took special interest in her two dogs, Rocky and Zach. She cared deeply about her community, the environment, and the world as a whole.


In recent months, Tara had made a decision to reach out with unconditional love to every person she met. Her friends and family were very impressed with both the depth of her conviction and her ability to put her beliefs into action. Her life was short, but filled with a great deal of significant experiences, learning, and progression.

Her family finds comfort in a promise given that Tara's Heavenly Father would watch over her at all times in her mortal life. Tara is now continuing to learn, study and grow under the tender care of the Master. We believe she is enjoying her new opportunities to meet people and acquire knowledge.

Tara is survived by her loving parents, Russell and Nancy Seigenberg of Logan, Utah and her sisters Rachel Ratchford (David) of Bountiful, Utah and Karla Christiansen (Justin) of Honolulu, Hawaii. She is also survived by her grandmother Edith Seigenberg, her grandfather Paul Salonen, and many more extended family members.

Funeral services will be held at 12:00 noon on Monday, April 24, 2006 at Allen-Hall Mortuary located at 34 East Center Street, Logan, Utah. A viewing will be held on Sunday April 23 from 6:00 to 7:30 p.m. and from 10:30-11:30 a.m. on Monday prior to the services. These services will be followed by interment at the Logan Cemetery.
