This obituary is administered by:
Saundra Stephens Toole, 64, beloved daughter, wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, passed away due to a tragic accident on May 8, 2008. She was born on June 28, 1943, to Edison J. Stephens and Beulah Bond of Henefer, Utah. She, along with her six brothers and sisters, was raised on a farm where she learned to work hard while enjoying a carefree and wonderful childhood roaming the fields and mountains on the ranch. She married Douglas Boyd Toole on November 23, 1960, in Coalville, Utah, and they set forth on a journey of 48 years together. She lovingly spoiled Doug and literally carried him through life's experiences. They were a team! She was his cheerleader and best friend. They had three daughters. She was a gracious, noble woman who loved unconditionally and blessed the lives of those who came in contact with her. She had dear friends throughout the world. She cared for many and always had a "pot on the stove" for anyone who cared to stop by. Her home was the gathering place. She was the organizer of parties and kept both sides of the family together. She loved her heritage and recently completed a book entitled "The Family and History of Parley Robert Stephens and Elthera Videan Fawcett". She was an accomplished gardener, seamstress, cook, world traveler, and was active in the community affairs, from 4H, Girl Scouts and PTA to the local homeowner's association. She was fearless in the face of adversity surviving Multiple Sclerosis, a brain tumor and other health challenges. She was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served faithfully in many callings. Her family was the most important part of her life. She was the most beautiful, kind, talented and caring mom. Her pride and joy were her daughters, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She was their biggest supporter and encouraged them in all of their many endeavors. She instilled in them confidence, a love of life and compassion for others. They knew they were loved. She is survived by her father, Edison J. Stephens and Erika Stephens; husband, Douglas Boyd Toole; her daughters and their spouses, Melanie and Michael Forbes of Draper, Utah, DeAnn and Darren Olsen of Wellsville, Utah, and Jennifer and Tony Cantafio of Long Beach, Calif.; 10 grandchildren, Natalie and Bryan Mason of Colchester, Vt., Tamara and Todd Jacobs of Bluffdale, Utah, Colin, McKell and Kaitlan Forbes, Chase and Land Olsen, Jaden, Luke, and Dylan Cantafio; three great-granddaughters, Niah and Chloe Mason, Preslee Jacobs.
