Merle lived 87 years of an exemplary life. Her life and example blessed her posterity and all the lives of anyone that knew her. She was a dear wife and wonderful mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and great-great-grandmother. She departed this life peacefully at home surrounded by loved ones and returned to her Heavenly Father and the loving arms of family on September 23, 2012 . She was born November 2, 1924 in Salt lake City, Utah to Dewey and Viola Allred Stout, Mom was the second of eight children and her best friend Radine introduced her to her brother Jerry whom she waited four long years for him to return from WWII. They married 7 days later on November 7, 1945 in the Salt Lake Temple. They were blessed with six children.
Merle is survived by her husband, Gerald "Jerry" Budd and their six children: JoAnne Hutton (Jerry), Michael Budd (Mercedes), Marilyn Catmull, Mark Budd (Cecilia), Janeen Dennis and Jim Budd (Teresa) all in the Salt Lake Valley; 24 grandchildren, 56 great-grandchildren, and 11 great-great-grandchildren, also by her brothers Don Stout, Melvin Stout (LaNita), and sister Maureen Eldridge.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Dewey and Viola Stout. And siblings: Marilyn and Joan Stout, Byron Stout, and sister JoLyn Fitzgerald, and granddaughter Mandy Ahrens. and great-granddaughter Cheyenne.
She worked as a secretary and typist at various jobs starting at Fort Douglas and retiring from Utah State Corrections.
Mother was a role model that anyone could live his or her life by. She loved being at home surrounded by family and visiting the Budd family cabin. She was an extraordinary and amazing woman. She always put others and their needs before her own. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and had unwavering faith and held many callings. She was an instrument in the Lords hands, and enjoyed doing family history. Our family has cause to suppose she was received well. She was a kind and sweet woman with malice toward none, full of love, humility, compassion and charity.
