Carolyn "Adele" LeBaron Stanley
1924 - 2013
Early Life: Adele was born December 29, 1924, in Santaquin, Utah, to George Washington LeBaron Jr. and Lavina Avanes Greenhalgh LeBaron, the fifth of their seven children. She grew up in Santaquin and worked on the family farm in Genola during her youth. She attended elementary and junior high in Santaquin, graduating from Payson High School in 1942.
Life's Work | Service | Interests: Adele met the love of her life, Thays Elroy Stanley, at a dance following a Juab-Payson basketball game. She had long, flowing, red hair and Thays described her as the prettiest girl he had ever seen. They courted and were married September 9, 1943, in the Salt Lake Temple. They raised three children and were life partners for 66 years until Thays passed away on October 10, 2009.
