Hyrum, UT - Bonnie Seamons Allen passed away at her home on Thursday, March 19, 2009 at the age of 95 from complications due to age. She was born on December 14, 1913 to Henry Hurren Seamons and Maria Ann Bennett in Hyde Park, Utah. She was the seventh child in a family of eleven children. There were plenty of hardships and plenty of work to go around. The family operated a small farm and had animals to sustain life. Every day, Sunday and Holidays included, eight loaves of bread were made and baked. Their family was one of the first in Hyde Park to have electric lights in their home. In 1933, she began dating and eventually married Preston Clyde Allen. They were married in the Logan Temple April 19, 1935. Their married life was spent running a farm in Hyrum.

She was always proud of her family, including her thirty grandchildren and ninety great-grandchildren. She was an excellent homemaker and a wonderful cook. Her famous potato salad and hot rolls were always a requested favorite at family gatherings.
