From Post Register (Idaho Falls, ID) - 14 April 2002:
VICTOR - Lloyd Woolstenhulme, 89, a lifelong resident of Victor, Idaho, died April 8, 2002, in Carrollton, Texas.
He was born June 14, 1912, in Chapin, Idaho, to Samuel and Elizabeth "Lizzie" Murphy Woolstenhulme. His mother has been known as the "first white child born in the Teton Valley." On August 6, 1933, he married Mary James. They had three children: Ila (Robert) Embleton of Mesa, Arizona, Claude (deceased), and Karen (Eddie Allen) Beasley of Pocatello. They later divorced. He married Ethel Carlquist on December 31, 1941; their marriage was solemnized in the Idaho Falls LDS Temple on March 6, 1953. They had seven children: Ann (Gary) Halversen of Salt Lake City, Carol (Larry) Rutherford of Provo, Utah, Stephen (Carma) of Plano, Texas, Kathleen (Roger) Humiston of Dallas, Texas, Vern (Bonnie) Woolstenhulme of Victor, LeGrand (Leslee) of Provo, and Roger (Gwen) Woolstenhulme of Orem, Utah. His wife, Ethel, died in 1980. He married Alice Rae Self on March 5, 1983. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Idaho Falls LDS Temple. She died in August 1994.
Among his survivors are a sister, Orba Larsen of Idaho Falls; 44 grandchildren; 54 great-grandchildren; and three great-great-grandchildren. He was preceded in death by five brothers, Vernard, Marc, Claude, Bryce and Lee; and a sister, Reva.
On his ranch in Victor, he raised cattle, horses, hay and grain. He loved large draft horses and had teams of Belgians, Shires, Percherons, and Clydesdales. He spent many years in land leveling, heavy construction and drilling tunnels, which took him to New Zealand, Alaska, New York, California, Illinois, Hawaii, Tennessee and many other states. As a contractor, he improved much farmland in Idaho and Wyoming - clearing, draining, leveling and putting in crops. One of his most lasting projects is the highway from Victor to the Idaho-Wyoming state line, which is still in use today. Lloyd was highly respected as a boss and supervisor; he has left his family a legacy of hard work and vivid memories of his sly sense of humor.
Services will be at 11 a.m. Monday at the Victor LDS Church. Burial will be in the Victor Cemetery under the direction of Valley Mortuary in Driggs.
