Fannie B. Cazier Dies at Age 74
Funeral services were conducted Tuesday, Dec 10 at 1 p.m. in the Afton Second-Third Ward Chapel with Counselor L.D. Nield of the Third Ward officiating for Fannie Blacker Cazier, 74, beloved and well known Afton resident who died suddenly following a short illness on Thursday, Dec 6 at the Star Valley LDS Hospital. Burial was in the Afton Cemetery.
She was born Christmas Day, Dec 25, 1893 of Almy, Wyo. the daughter of Edward and Merintha Althera Loveday Blacker.. She lived there until she was three years old, when the family moved to Star Valley.
Weather conditions were so inclement that the family could not drive a team in the canyon, so they left their horses and walked the rest of the way, carrying Fannie in their arms and on their shoulders. When they reached the ranch (where Morris Gibbons now lives), the snow was so deep they couldn't get the door to the log cabin open and had to cut steps down to the door.
Fannie was the 10th of 11 children in her family. Her parents were hard-working and expected much from each member of the family. Fannie milked the cows winter and summer, often in extremely cold weather, with no barn for shelter.
Fannie's mother came across the ocean to embrace the Gospel, but her father was a staunch Methodist. However, all the children, with the consent of their father, were baptized member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and Fannie's father eventually joined a year before Fannie was born. He was a good member and set a good example for his family. One of his teachings that always remained with Fannie was the practice of attending funerals. She learned to love people, and share their sorrows and joys. Everyone she knew was important and personal to her.
Fannie always loved the church, and spent her life trying to do the things in which she believed. She served in many capacities, including Sunday School and MIA teacher, the first girls correlation worker in her ward, YWMIA president, relief society block teacher, Era director, was an ardent genealogy worker and served as a stake missionary with her husband from 1944 to 1947. She also did much temple work, which she enjoyed.
She became acquainted with Earl Cazier through her brother, Hyrum. Their courtship blossomed and they were married June 28, 1917, at the home of her sister, Merintha, in Kemmerer, Wyo. On May 8, 1918, they were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple.
On July 4, 1918, Earl was drafted into the army to serve during World War I. He left for Germany just two months later, and Fannie went to live with her mother. On Oct 13, 1918, Fannie's mother was called to Cumberland, Wyo., to be with her son, Kem, who was very ill with the flu. On Oct 15, twin daughters, Dona and Dora, were born to Fannie and Earl. Fannie's doctor was sick with the flu and died in the morning the day the twins were born. Fannie went to the home of her sister, Maria Gardner, while so many people were ill with the flu. The twins were born with crooked feet and needed an operation soon after they were born, before the operation took place, Fannie asked Apostle Melvin J. Ballard to administer to them. When Dr, D,O. Beal, who performed the operation, looked at the twins before the operation, he noticed something different and asked Fannie what had happened, saying that a greater power then his had been at work. The operation was successful and Fannie's testimony of the power of the priesthood was strengthened.
She always loved sports and if her sons or grandsons were participating, she was there cheering them on. She was very happy when her son Paul filled a mission for the LDS Church--then years later when six grandsons and one granddaughter filled missions. She always thrilled over the accomplishments of her children and grandchildren. She now has three grandsons serving in the National Guard and on in the U.S. Army.
Fannie loved flowers and beautiful things, so her yard was kept neat and full of beauty. She had a large vegetable garden nearly every year and loved sharing it with friends and neighbors. She also loved to quilt and to help her neighbors and friends. In the program in observance of their 50th wedding anniversary in June 1967, Fannie said, "My live has been a good life,"
