Fred
and Edith Amundson, of Roy, will be celebrating their 60th
Wedding Anniversary on May 29th, 2013. They were engaged
on Valentines Day 1953 after a two year courtship, married on May 29,
1953 in Roosevelt, Utah, and sealed the following February in the
Salt Lake Temple. Fred and Edith have lived their married life
throughout Utah: Roosevelt, Salt Lake City, Granger, Richmond,
Vernal and, for the last 24 years, in Roy. They have 4 children;
Vicki, Luann, Jim and Bryan, 18 grandchildren and 10
great-grandchildren.
Fred
supported his family working as a plumber, but he can do anything.
He is talented in building, remodeling, creating and inventing.
Edith worked in banking. She enjoyed playing sports in her youth,
bowling in her middle years, and playing games and cards with friends
and family.
Both
Fred and Edith have been active members of The Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter Day Saints, serving in many positions of leadership and
service. They have enjoyed traveling, gardening, meeting regularly
with close friends and getting family together as often as possible.
They have been great examples of generosity and service to others.
A more recent photo reflects how they are often found. It was taken on a warm afternoon in Preston, Idaho after the blessing of Jenna Marie Bodily. 8-5-2012
