She was born March 30, 1930, the daughter of Albert and Clara Glover in Midvale, UT (the youngest of 10 children).

She worked side by side with her husband for 26 years in their family owned business, KMH Foodmart. She was a loving wife, devoted mother, and a caring grandmother and great-grandmother. Her life was spent serving others. She loved to make hand crafted gifts for her children and grandchildren. She was a wonderful cook (best pumpkin pie maker ever). She was a devout member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in many positions herself, but loved most to support her husband in his many church responsibilities.
