Obituary - Mrs. Mary Gardner Laid At Rest Passed Away in the L.D.S. Hospital Last Thursday
Yesterday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. A. Bruce Gardner, President Clarence Gardner, Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Gardner Bishop F. R. Gardner and Mrs. Elizabeth Turner returned to Afton, from Salt Lake City, where they had been to attend the funeral of their mother, Mrs. Mary L. Gardner, who passed away at the L.D.S. Hospital on the 20th of October of pneumonia.
Sister Gardner has suffered with a bad leg for upwards of thirty years which appears to be quite serious for several weeks prior to her departure for Salt Lake City. After consulting local physicians, it was thought best to have her taken to the L.D.S. Hospital where she could receive treatment from specialists. She seemed to get along splendidly for a number of days and it was thought by the doctors that she would be able to leave the hospital before any great length of time when pneumonia set in which resulted in her death.
Funeral services were held at West Jordan, Sister Gardener's former home prior to moving to Star Valley, October 24th at 11:00 A.M. Five sons and one daughter were present, Dr. E. L. Gardner of Willmington Delaware, being the only one absent of the immediate family. There were 21 sons and daughters of Archibald Gardner, also numerous grand and great grand children as well as many other relatives and friends present.
Elders Alfonzo Bateman and Emanuel Richards, of West Jordan, spoke feelingly of their acquaintances with Sister Gardner and family, enumerating many instances in the life's work of Sister Gardner and of her husband, Bishop Archibald Gardner, during the early days in Utah.
Elder Henry Gardner of Spanish Fork Utah briefly outlined the historical events in the life of the deceased showing that she had passed through many trying times and had made many sacrifices for the Gospels sake and had been true and faithful to every trust during her long and useful life.
Sister Lottie Owens Sackett sang, "Who are These Arrayed in White."
Apostle Melvin J. Ballard sang, "I Know That My Redeemer Lives", and followed with an eloquent discourse on life in mortality and beyond the grave. He stated that he had been personally acquainted with the deceased and when he was first introduced to Sister Gardner had felt that she was indeed a woman of the Lord. He knew that she had passed through many trials but through them all she had been true and faithful and had died as she had lived a true and faithful Latter Day Saint.
The floral offerings were many and beautiful. A large cortège followed the remains to Salt Lake City where she was laid to rest beside her husband and her son Royal, in the city cemetery.
Mary Larson Gardner was born in Denmark, June 15, 1850. Her parents accepted the Gospel and emigrated to Utah in 1859. Sister Gardner was only eight years of age but walked all they way from the Missouri river to Salt Lake City. The company suffered many privations during their journey but made little or no complaint. Like most of the early pioneers she knew what it meant to suffer from hunger and the lack of other necessities.
She became the wife of Bishop Archibald Gardner of West Jordan from which union came seven sons and three daughters.
She leaves 6 sons, 1 daughter, 27 grandchildren, 6 great grandchildren, and a host of relatives and friends to mourn her loss.
On October 1st 1890 she moved to Star Valley with her husband and family where she has since resided.
Sister Gardner has been an enthusiastic and energetic worker in the Relief Society having served for a number of years as counselor to President Harriot Cazier in the Afton Relief Society; as counselor to President Alice J. Call of the Star Valley Stake Relief Society, and has served for many years as member of the Stake Relief Society board being a member of the board she traveled throughout the stake and visited the various wards many times giving instructions and advise in this great work. She has spent much time among the sick doing her part in relieving pain and distress.
She has been a devoted wife and mother and has held to the last the love of her sons and daughters, who were all devoted to her and who will greatly miss her presence in the home circle as well as her timely council and advise.
In her loss may we follow the advise of the poet who says;
"Then cheer up and bear up, and laugh at old fate;
Let her wreak on your head what she will,
With noble and fearless forbearance await
Every blow, every loss, every ill.
Hope on and remember the dreariest way
Has nothing of sadness or sorrow,
For the brave heart that smiles at the fills of today
And hopes for a brighter tomorrow".
