Our dear loving mother, grandma, sister, and friend, Grace Florene Ernstsen, passed away on October 20, 2014 at age eighty-nine.
She was born July 29, 1925 in Lyman, Wayne County, Utah to Harold Wendell Peterson and Eva Pearl White Peterson.
She shared fifty-one wonderful years with her sweetheart, Dean. Their marriage was solemnized and her children were sealed to them in the Provo Utah Temple. Their love and life was their children and grandchildren.
Mom's joy was doing things for and with her sweetheart and family; vacations, monthly Family Home Evenings, birthdays, working, and spending time at Graceland, their dream home in Heber City.
She lived an active life bowling, dancing, working in her yard, dancing, taking care of her home in Heber City, and a little more dancing.
Her life was spending time with those she loved. She also loved spending time with her two sisters, LaFonda and Vivian, her Hotel Utah club, DUP, and her many dance friends.
She was a devoted member of the LDS Church. She served in many leadership roles in her ward of fifty-seven years.
Thank you, Mom, for leaving us with a strong faith in the Lord, a love for family, and a celebration of life.
Mom is survived by her children, Sheila (Buck) Wilson, Sheldon (Kathleen) Ernstsen, and Sandra (Kennard) Clark; ten grandsons; two granddaughters; and fourteen great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her baby daughter, Sharon; her eternal sweetheart, Dean Axel Ernstsen; her brothers; and her parents.
A remembrance and celebration of her life will be held on Saturday, October 25, 2014 at 10:00 a.m. in the Salt Lake Twenty-First North Ward Chapel, 2nd Avenue and K Street, Salt Lake City.
