Daughter of Doyle Henry Rampton, and Ruth Ellen Adams

Wife of Jay Fred Cullimore

Elaine Rampton Cullimore
"TOGETHER AGAIN"
A week ago today our mother wondered if she was ready to meet the Savior. Indeed she was. On a glorious spring day, Tuesday, May 13, 2014 an elect lady, Elaine Rampton Cullimore, 84, passed from this life with causes relating to pulmonary lung failure. We as a family are comforted to know that she now is in the loving presence of her Heavenly Father, and in the outstretched arms of her husband, Jay. We know in our hearts that she is having delightful reunions with her ancestors that she dearly loved.
Elaine was born in Layton, on May 31, 1929, to Doyle Henry Rampton, and Ruth Ellen Adams Rampton. Our mother was born in that significant time of strife and sacrifice during the years of the Great Depression. She learned and mastered many skills, such as cleaning, sewing and cooking. It was probably during these sparse times our mother developed several small passions. She was persnickety about caring for her home and possessions; she loved dessert, especially anything with frosting. Lastly, she had fun buying pretty clothes and shoes. Clifton's dress shop, her favorite place to shop, helped us accommodate at least one of her vices with her frequent shopping sprees.
Elaine attended Davis County Schools graduating in 1947, from Davis High School. Due to the building of the Navy Base, her family moved off of their farm and relocated in Garland. Mother elected to stay where she was familiar and had the unique experience of living with her grandmother, Lettie Adams. This relationship led to a sincere and especially tightly formed bond between the two. Also, mother formed many friendships with high school girls that continued up to the very end of her life with monthly excursions for restaurant extravaganzas.
Mother married our beloved father on October 27, 1949. Their marriage was later sealed in the Logan LDS Temple. Elaine supported him in all of his teaching and coaching adventures, although early on she really didn't know one sport from another. Through their nearly sixty years of marriage mother became quite a connoisseur of the sports' world cheering for both the Jazz and B.Y.U.
Ultimately, it was our mother's greatest desire and wish for her children to have a father of which they would be continually proud. That is simply one of her greatest treasures she gave to us, her posterity.
Elaine served in many capacities in the church with her most familiar calling being in the Primary Presidencies. She later served as the Relief Society President of the Kaysville 9th ward. Mother loved her pioneer heritage and was an active member of The Daughters of Utah Pioneers until her health declined. She was actively involved in her Literary Fine Arts Book Club for over 40 years, along with serving as the President of the Ladies' Reserve Officer's Club. Mother considered it her honor to be fortunate to be able to serve as a hostess and guide for the Beehive House for twenty years. This was an experience she treasured all of her days. Mother and Dad served faithfully for six years as ordinance workers in both the Ogden and Bountiful Temples.
Mother had a great love for reading and studying the scriptures and her testimony of the Gospel of Jesus Christ was unparalleled. She left us, her children with a fervent testimony of the Savior, and a legacy to endure to the end with dignity. She is survived by her children, Ron Cullimore (Pat), Sheryl Ricketts (John), Julie Cullimore, and JoanE Linford (Bruce). Also surviving are her brothers, Richard Rampton, and Kent Rampton, and two sisters, Helen Reeder, and Maureen Topik. She leaves behind nine grandchildren and fourteen great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents, husband Jay, and one great-grandson Lincoln Parke.
Our family wishes to thank South Davis Home Health and their priceless CNA, Ashley Soto. Our mother referred to her as "My Ashley." We are also grateful for the sincere kindness, care, and love exhibited by Bountiful's Orchard Cove.
Funeral services will be held Tuesday morning, May 20, 2014 at 11 a.m. at the Kaysville East Stake Center, 201 So. 600 E. Friends may visit family Monday evening from 6 to 8 p.m. at Lindquist's Kaysville Mortuary, 400 North Main and Tuesday from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m. at the church. Interment, Kaysville City Cemetery.
In lieu of flowers, our mother would be happy to have donations sent to the LDS Church Missionary Department.
Condolences may be sent to the family at sent to the LDS Church Missionary Department.
