Deana Turnbow Maxwell Our Angel Wife and Mother
Deana Turnbow Maxwell, our beautiful and beloved wife, mother, sister, grandmother, great-grandmother and special aunt, passed away peacefully Wednesday, March 16th after a courageous battle with colon cancer.
Deana was born on July 9, 1930 in Heber City, Utah to Dorothy (Birdie) Barker and Horace (Bill) Turnbow. Deana married the love of her life Clive Miles Maxwell on June 4, 1947. They were later sealed in the Salt Lake Temple June 24, 1960 along with her parents.
Deana (along with her twin sister Darlene) is the oldest of six children. Growing up in Heber, Deana is adventurous, outgoing and vivacious. Deana, her twin and friends were involved in many fun-spirited capers during their high school years at Wasatch High. She was the life of the party and the heart of our family. These traits would stay with her through her entire life. Deana is loved by her entire family and everyone blessed enough to have known her. Mother worked for Dr. Conklin, who was visually impaired, doing all of his needle work (injections). She loved this job and made many friends. She worked there to help support her two sons who were serving missions at the same time. Mom obtained her real estate license in 1977 and was a member of the Salt Lake Board of Real Estate for many years, which she enjoyed very much. Often, mom would give part or all of her own commission to help the buyer qualify. For many years she and her husband owned and operated a successful electrical contracting business for many years. Deana loved spending time with her family, cooking, reading, shopping and traveling. She and her husband enjoyed traveling the California and Oregon coast in the summer and in the winter as avid snowbirds in Arizona. She had a flair for cooking and could make any dish taste divine. She served with gracious enthusiasm in many church callings. She especially enjoyed working with the youth as it gave her the opportunity to be with her children as she served the Lord. Mother was truly a choice daughter of our Father in Heaven. Whenever she saw anyone in need, she always did all she could to help. She especially loved sharing a good story and spent countless hours on the telephone with friends and family.
Survived by her loving and eternal companion Clive; sisters Darlene (Eugene) Probst, Mary Parcell, Gaye (Joe) McPhie, Kent (Gale) Turnbow, Mark (Jean) Turnbow; children: Alan (Bonnie) Maxwell, Vance Maxwell, Brenda Turner, Jana (Boyd) Summers, Sandra (Dan) Martinsen, and LuAnn (Jeff) Abeyta; 30 grandchildren, and 27 great-grandchildren. Preceded in death by her parents Birdie and Bill Turnbow, mother and father-in-law Lynn and Eloise Rockhill, son Brian Kent Maxwell, and son-in-law Keith E. Turner.
Funeral services will be held on Monday, March 21, 2005 at 11:00 a.m. in the Murraydale Ward chapel located at 6300 So. 300 E. Friends and family are invited to visit at the Cannon Mortuary, 2460 E. Bengal Blvd. (7600 So.) Sunday from 6-8 p.m. and 10:00-10:45 a.m. prior to the services at the church. Interment will be at the Midway Cemetery.
The family would like to thank those who cared for our darling wife and mother: Dr. William Nibley and staff, Cottonwood Hospital 5th floor nursing staff, Heritage Brookside Home Health Care (Gary Fudyma), and Residence Care Source. We also appreciate the many acts of kindness and prayers that were extended in behalf of our dear wife and mother.
