Jeannie was born Aug. 7, 1963, in Salt Lake City to parents Darrel Lamar and Barbara Jean Wakley. She spent her formative years in Rexburg, Idaho, where she met Stephen Lynn Williams. They married and raised two daughters, Amy Dawn and Tiffany Lynn, in the Rose Park area of Salt Lake City.IMG_5433_NVstudio
Jeannie was an independent soul who loved the outdoors, particularly four-wheeler rides and camping at her mountain acreage and at Mona Pole.
Jeannie took good care of both her home and her family. Her tidy house was always a warm and welcoming place for parents, friends, children and, especially, grandchildren. The home was filled with well-maintained plants, images of majestic wolves, beautiful rock specimens, Coca-Cola memorabilia and, of course, music.
Later in life, as her eyesight faded from the effects of the disease, Jeannie enjoyed listening to audiobooks and discussing stories with others. Diabetes severely affected Jeannie’s health during her years as a mother and grandmother, but she didn’t let it affect time spent with family during birthdays, holidays and regular visits, which she cherished.
Death has alleviated Jeannie’s suffering and taken her to a better place, but her passing leaves a void in the hearts of loved ones.IMG_5506_NVstudio
Jeannie is survived by her parents, husband and daughters in addition to sisters Karen Wakley Challis, Teresa Rushton and Melissa Smith; grandsons Braxton, Jacob, Kaden, Carson, Trenton, Tanner and Drake; granddaughters Adalynn and Rebecca; and sons-in-law Kelly Staheli and Aaron Shill.
A service for immediate family will be held Saturday, June 18, from 10:30 to 11:00 a.m. A service for extended family, friends and neighbors will follow from 11:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The services will be at Walker’s Mortuary, 187 S. Main Street in Spanish Fork, Utah.
