From The Deseret News (Salt Lake City, UT) - Tuesday, September 18, 2001:

Our beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend, was called home September 16, 2001.

She was born August 16, 1915 in Nephi Utah to John Edgar Lunt and Lydia Jane Kendall Lunt. Marjorie graduated from Juab High School. After graduating, she worked at Ralph's Café in Nephi until she served an LDS mission to the Western States Mission. In 1943, she met the love of her life, Ralph LaMar Sainsbury, shortly after he returned from boot camp. They were married January 7, 1944 in the Salt Lake Temple by President David O. McKay. They spent their honeymoon in New York and Washington D.C., where she then saw him off to serve in World War II. They were reunited after the war and started their family like so many others. They lived in Salt Lake City, where they raised two sons, Ralph LaMar Jr., and Brent Lunt Sainsbury.

Marjorie was active in Relief Society, Primary and her church choir, but the pride and joy of her life was her family. She was a wonderful wife, mother and grandmother in a time when those qualities were not always recognized. We recognized that and want her to know just how loved and appreciated she was and that she did her "job" to perfection. She will be missed by all of us more than we can say.

She was preceded in death by her husband LaMar, her parents, her sisters Marie and Ruth, and her brothers Homer and Boyd. She is survived by her sisters Aiden, Beth, and Jane (Burt), sons Ralph (Christie), and Brent, grandchildren, Eric (Ammie), Derek (Meredith), Jody (Phil), Aaron, Elisa (Randy), Adam, Scott (Noel), Tristen (Jose), Doug and Makensey; and 11 great-grandchildren.

Funeral services will be held at 12 noon on Wednesday, Sept. 19, 2001 at the Bountiful East Stake Center, 2150 South 650 East. Family and friends may call at the Wasatch Lawn Mortuary, 3401 South Highland Drive, from 6 to 8 p.m. on Tuesday, September 18, 2001, and on Wednesday from 10:45 to 11:45 a.m. at the Stake Center prior to services. Interment, Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park.
