Echo Drue Christiansen Hampton

Early Life: Echo was born March 29, 1934, in American Fork, Utah, to Byron Ray and LaVerne Grantham Christiansen. Echo was raised in Tooele, Utah, moving to West Valley, Highland, and then St. George, Utah.
Life’s Work | Service | Interests: On July 15, 1950, she married Richard Lloyd Hampton in Ely, Nevada. Echo worked at the Utah State Training School in American Fork.

Most important to Echo was her family. She loved playing with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Since moving to St. George, she golfed almost every day with her daughters and sweetie (her loving Buddy) or anyone she could find to golf with her. She also loved playing cards with a group of friends and family and always wanted to win. Just ask the Drury clan. Echo Drue Christiansen Hampton passed away Wednesday, March 19, 2013. She was 78.
