Eliza Whiting Faucett passed away on February 24, 1995 at age ninety-nine.

Eliza was born January 23, 1896 in Mapleton to Harriet Elizabeth Johnson and Philetus Edgar Whiting. She was married in the Salt Lake Temple on October 12, 1920 to Joseph Carl Faucett. They lived in Provo several years, where their four children were born, before moving to Salt Lake City.

Eliza is predeceased by Carl, and leaves her children, Evelyn (John) Langton, Canada; Fred (Audrey) Faucett, Salt Lake City; Helen (Maurice) Lee, Kaysville; and Beth (Robert) Backus, West Valley City; sixteen grandchildren; forty-five great-grandchildren; one brother, Vern (Virla) Whiting; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Eliza was a faithful worker in the Relief Society and in the Salt Lake Temple. She was a true pioneer daughter. Her grandparents joined the church in the early days and suffered the violence and hardships of the persecutions and the trek West. Her parents had their trials also, farming in a new land and caring for nine children, only made worse when the mother died when Eliza was only seven years old.

Eliza was a good daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She will be greatly missed by those she leaves behind and greatly welcomed by those she has gone to meet.

Funeral services will be held at 12:00 p.m. on Monday in the Cannon Sixth and Seventh Ward Chapel, 934 West Fremont Avenue (1100 South), where friends may call prior to the services from 10:00-11:45 a.m.
