Obituary: Lorna Myrl (LMont) Weston

 


Lorna Myrl (LaMont) Weston 8/15/1942 - 2/16/2022 Lorna Myrl LaMont Weston passed away peacefully on Wednesday, February 16, 2022, in Logan, Utah, at the age of 79. Her family would like to sincerely thank all of those who cared for her during her stay at Terrace Grove Assisted Living. Lorna was born August 15, 1942, in Logan, Utah, to parents John R. and LaRene D. LaMont. She married Mckay W. Weston on July 21, 1959 and was a caring wife for 38 years before he preceded her in death. A mother to four children, Lorna loved her children unconditionally and her greatest joy in life were her grandchildren. Lorna's loved ones remember her for her sometimes-sassy-sometimes-sweet-always-peppy sense of humor, her playfulness and protectiveness, and most of all, her heart. She was devoted to being a caretaker and source of comfort to her family, and she earned her wings well in this life. She is predeceased by her parents, her siblings Lynda Marie Murdaugh, William E. Owen, and Lana Faye Jardine. Surviving Lorna is her brother John Ferris Lamont, and her children; Daniel M. Weston, Terri Ann Lamborn, David N. Weston, and LaRene Eborn, as well as her 12 grandchildren and 24 great grandchildren, with three on the way.

Private family services will be held for Lorna in Logan, Utah on February 25th, 2022. For those wishing to pay their respects in the future, she will be buried next to her sweetheart in Laketown, Utah.

Obituary: Dorothy Jean Pugmire



Dorothy Jean Pugmire, 98, of Logan, Utah, passed away 11 March 2022. She was born 28 May 1923 in Paris, Bear Lake County, Idaho, to Jonathan Rich Pugmire and Ellen Athay Budge Pugmire. Jean grew up in southeast Idaho, spending her summers at the family farm located on Antelope Flats, in the hills east of Bear Lake, and the winters in Paris, Idaho. Jean's first four years in school were difficult, because she could not talk plainly and few took the time to try to understand her. Her brother, Frank, was the only one who learned her language and was often her interpreter. In the fourth year of school, the whole family moved to Logan so she could have a special teacher and attend the Whittier School. This experience changed her life. In 1944 Jean joined the WAVES. She was discharged in 1946 with the rank of Mailman Second Class. Jean graduated from Utah State University and Merrill Palmer Institute in Detroit, Michigan. She received a Master's Degree from the University of Michigan , and an EdD from the University of Maryland. Jean taught kindergarten in Provo and Logan City schools.

 She was preceded in death by her parents; three older sisters, Alice (Robert John) Evans, Nancy Helen (G.B.) Crawford, and Ruth (Floyd L.) Carter; an older brother, Franklyn Budge Pugmire; and one nephew. She is survived by three nieces and two nephews. A graveside service with Military Honors will be held at Logan City Cemetery Friday March 18 at 11:00 am.

Garden City Planning and Zoning March 9, 2022 Recap

 

Garden City Planning and Zoning March 9, 2022 Recap

During the public comment people spoke on the following opinions:

 Having Sun Resort help build 3rd West since the road plans have been moved due to their resort plan. The answer from Sun Resort people was that they will help with their share as will other land owners.

Some questions remain about the possible back up on SR 30. UDOT will address the issue when the Resort plans are approved by the City.

 A concern was expressed about the water runoff. The City engineer will approve the water runoff to meet the 100 year possibilities of water drainage.

The Hodges canal company will work with Sun Resort to make sure the canal easements are protected.

A question was raised about the area becoming a PRUD. PRUD’s are flexible, which upsets some people as they do not understand that when a property is sold then the original owners or those who have lived in the community for years really do not have the choice of what will be done by the new owners. Also, for those who want to know where to go for information, it is located at  https://www.utah.gov/pmn/

Regular meeting;

Discussion of Sun Resorts refinement of their Resort Plans. Much discussion was held about the water lines crossing the Sun Resort property. The Resort will work with the Canal Company and the homeowners to make sure they have water. The Resort plans to have transportation to Blue Water Beach area. The Planning Commission denied approval and asked that they bring back the preliminary plat to answer the questions they have.

Randy Scholes from Lockwood wants to combine 3 lots and make two lots. It was approved upon condition that he bring a letter from the HOA giving approval for this change and an amended plat.

Preliminary approval for Water’s Edge 1, 5,& 6 with a spring percolation test and verifying enough parking.

Buttercup was denied as the preliminary plat did not show the building footprint where the canal is located.

Moldenhauer employee RV housing for 20 sites on 2 acres was approved. Discussion was held on egress and ingress area.

Conestoga’s PUD was denied until they bring a plat that shows the open space and the cross section for the RV area.

For Discussion only, Horizon presented a plan for 160 apartment units on 6 acres with 300 parking spaces.

Again may I remind you to go to https://www.utah.gov/pmn/ to see what is on the agendas.
