Kathryn Warr Kearl passed away on December 2, 2010.
She was born in Hyrum, Utah to Clifford and Norene Allen Warr on January 6, 1924. They moved to Preston, Idaho where she spent her childhood.
She met James Russell Kearl there, and they were married on January 3, 1944 in the Logan LDS temple. They lived on a little farm in Nibley until Dad graduated from Utah State, then they moved to Buhl, Idaho where Dad taught school for two years.
They moved back to Logan and built a home in River Heights, doing all the work themselves, where she has lived for the past 60 years. She loved that home and all the memories they made raising their family there.
She is the mother of seven children, two of whom preceded her in death, Linda Lee and a baby boy. Mom loved her family, her Savior and her country. It must have been a joyous reunion early in the morning of December 2 with Dad, whom she loved, and with two children whom she knew only briefly as infants.
Mom was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and loved the scriptures. She served faithfully in all the auxiliaries of the Church. She served as the ward organist, with no breaks, for over 40 years. Her most cherished callings were her work as the Stake Homemaking Leader and the Family History Extraction work she did at the Logan Tabernacle.
Mom was a great seamstress and used her talents to benefit her children, her grandchildren, her friends and the Relief Society. For years she made baby blankets and donated hundreds of them to the Church humanitarian effort.
Mom and Dad loved flowers and spent hours making their yard a beautiful place. She and Dad enjoyed designing and re-designing their yard with rock gardens and a rock fireplace and the gorgeous flowers they raised themselves in their greenhouse.
Mom was a great cook. Her homemade fudge and penuche, orange rolls and Sunday roasts with gravy are legendary. Mom loved decorating her home. She enlisted Dad's help on many redecorating projects and holiday decorations and always had a "project" underway either in the house or in Dad's workshop.
Her home was a wonderland to her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren during any holiday season. Mom enjoyed gathering her family around her whenever she could. Her grandchildren looked forward to her parties on all the special occasions. They took delight in her Halloween parties when she would dress up as a witch and paint her face for them and in Easter parties, which always included rolling eggs down Old Main hill, come rain or shine.
The family cabin at Bear Lake was a special place for grandkids to spend time with Grandma and Grandpa Kearl. Mom and Dad were blessed with a wonderful circle of friends who enjoyed sporting events, playing cards and good food together.
She belonged to the "Club," a group of women who met together twice a month for over 50 years to do handiwork and visit.
Mom is survived by her children and their spouses, James R. Kearl (Linda), Provo, Kris Carlson (Gerald), Syracuse, Dan W. Kearl (Barbara), Portland, OR, Lauralyn Larsen (Ryan), North Logan, and Jeffrey D. Kearl (Monica), Mantua; 25 grandchildren; 34 great-grandchildren; two sisters, Ruth Kearl, Madison, WI, and Betty Baird (Richard), River Heights; sisters-in-la, Marjorie Kearl, Ithaca, NY, and Phyllis Belnap (Bruce), Orlando, FL.
She was preceded in death by her husband; her mother and father; two children; and two grandchildren.
A special thanks to Betty and Richard for all the love and care they gave Mom, allowing her to stay in her home for as long as she did, and to Integrity Home Health, especially Cassie and Jan.
Funeral services will be held Monday, December 6 at noon at the Allen-Hall Mortuary, 34 East Center Street, in Logan. A viewing will be held Sunday evening, December 5, from 6 to 8 p.m. and prior to the funeral from 10:30 to 11:30 at the mortuary. Burial will be in the Providence Cemetery in River Heights.
