Glenna Ivie Carlson, 84, daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend, passed away December 24, 2016.

Glenna was born in Orem, Utah, on June 23, 1932 to James Arthur and Vidella Riding Ivie. She was the fifth child of eight siblings who have loved each other and been very close.

Glenna attended and graduated from Lincoln High School in Orem. She was a member of the pep club and played on the high school girls basketball team. After her graduation from high school she was working at the Ogden Defense Depot where she met and then married Don L. Carlson. They were married October 18, 1952 in Elko, Nevada. Their marriage was solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple of the LDS Church.

Don and Glenna had two children who they always called, their favorite daughter, Donell, and their favorite son, Steve. Donell and Steve always grew up knowing they were their parents' favorite children. Through the years Don and Glenna had lived in North Salt Lake, Centerville, and spent the last 30 years in Bountiful. Glenna was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, and lived and attended the Bountiful North Canyon 4th Ward. She held various callings in her church service. Her favorite being the Young Women's President when she lived in Centerville.

Glenna was someone who liked to stay busy. She worked for many years throughout her life. One of her favorite times of life was when she began working in real estate. She loved working with lots of different clients and agents, showing and selling homes. She excelled in this business and received many awards. She always had fond memories and made long lasting friendships during this period of her life.

After the loss of her husband, she took the opportunity to travel to many places around the world. She went on an African Safari, traveled through Europe and South East Asia. She also made many trips to NYC.

Don and Glenna had bought a home in St. George where they had enjoyed spending the winters. It was around this time that with the help of her sister Ruth, she became interested in piecing together material and making quilts. She spent many hours working and making beautiful quilts. Her family members and others have benefited from all the many quilts that she has created. She has continued spending her winters in St. George where she could stay busy and get around without the snow holding her back.

Glenna loved being with her many friends. She traveled with some, made weekly temple visits, and had many lunch and movie dates with others. She treasured the times that she spent with all of them. She absolutely loved BYU! No matter what sport was involved, she was cheering them on. She was able to attend many football and basketball games, and loved watching them on T.V. She was always trying to get her Utah and Utah State family to come to her side and cheer for her BYU Cougars. She loved BYU!

Glenna is survived by her children, Donell (Wes) Rhodes, Steve (Laureen) Carlson, her grandchildren, Jaime (Jayson) Argyle, Courtney (Carson) Callister, Ryan Rhodes, Molly (Emmanuel) Lopez, and Nicholas, Jacob, and Zachary Carlson, her ten great-grandchildren, Jackson, Marcus, Austin, Alec, Taylee, Olivia, Abby, Payton, Selma, and Nixon.
