She was born April 23, 1914 in Hinckley, Utah, the daughter of Apostle Alonzo Arza Hinckley and Rose May Robison. Mother loved her childhood growing up in Hinckley. The family relocated to Salt Lake City when Governor Charles R. Mabey asked her father to serve as the Commissioner of Agriculture for the state of Utah. She graduated from East High School and attended USC while her father presided over the California Mission. When the family returned to Utah she finished her BA degree at Brigham Young University. She served as a student body officer and was a member of the Alethian Association. Mom loved beautiful music and played the cello in the Brigham Young University Symphony Orchestra.

They spent 58 wonderful, happy years together. Dad preceded her in death on October 12, 1996. Mom was always attracted to things that were beautiful and uplifting. She served in many callings. Hers was a life of charity and compassion. Her study and understanding of the Gospel of Jesus Christ was extraordinary. Mom was a kind and caring homemaker. The joy of her life was her family. She was always soft spoken and refined. Mom created a loving environment in her home, for which her posterity has been richly blessed.

Atkins), Darlene (Ralph J. Rich), Jeanine (G. Merrill Dodge), Kenneth Hinckley Rose (Diane), Wallace Hinckley Rose (Valinda), Lyman Hinckley Rose (Lesa).
