WILLARD – Maurine Anderson Widdison passed away on Monday, March 30, 2009 surrounded by her family at McKay Dee Hospital.
Maurine was born on October 9, 1932 to Don Lyman and Thelma Lovell Anderson in Oak City, Utah minutes before her twin sister.
She was raised in Oak City and graduated for Delta High School.
Maurine played the piano and the saxophone in the High School band. She received a Scholarship and attended Dixie Jr. College. She then moved to Salt Lake City to work. She taught Sunday school for two years at the Primary Children's Hospital and was the Ninth ward MIA President. Maurine has always been active in her church. She served an 18-month LDS Mission to the Eastern States (1956-57).
Maurine worked in Salt Lake City for eight years until she met Glenn L. Widdison during a dear hunting trip in Oak City. That year she boasts that she bagged the best kind of deer, the two-legged kind.

Maurine loved her membership in the Daughters of Utah Pioneers and served for six years as Company President over the South Box Elder County which included 15 Camps.
Maurine loved teaching, good books, good music, and making life fun. Camping with family and friends was her favorite activity. She like a good joke and would leave you with, "Have you heard this joke. . . ?"
