Karen Allen
Our loving wife, mom, and grandma, Karen Ann Allen, 64, passed away May 23, 2020, surrounded by family in her home in Tremonton. She had suffered with many health issues for many years. She fought valiantly to the end.
Karen was born Jan. 14, 1956, in Gunnison, Utah, to Paul and Marcia Christiansen. Later, her family moved to West Corinne where she grew up. She attended Corinne Elementary and graduated from Box Elder High School in 1974. She then attended Ricks College and Weber State College.
She married Michael Lynn Allen on Jan. 20, 1978, in the Ogden Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She was the mother of two wonderful daughters and her favorite son.
She was a member of the LDS Church and served in the Primary and Relief Society.
She was a woman of many talents. She loved quilting, sewing, basket weaving, tole painting, knitting, cross-stitching, and many other crafts. There wasn’t any craft she tried that she didn’t do beautifully. She enjoyed teaching her daughters to sew and the Relief Society sisters how to make quilts. She loved making things for her family, including double wedding ring quilts for each of her children when they got married and heirloom blessing outfits for her grandchildren.
She is survived by her husband, Michael; her children: Amber (Eric) Bingham, Jason (Kelly) Allen, and Elizabeth (Lance) Jones; 10 grandchildren; her mother, Marcia Christiansen; her sister, Pauline (Jarvis) Sorenson; and her brother, David (Natalee) Christiansen.
She was preceded in death by her father, Paul Christiansen; and sister, Paula Christiansen.
The family would like to thank the Intermountain Hospice staff for their loving care of Karen, especially Bonnie, Wendy, and Irene.
A public viewing will be held May 28 from 10–11:30 a.m. at the Tremonton LDS Stake Center, 660 N. 300 East.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to your favorite charity or the Missionary Fund of the LDS Church, or make a craft for someone you love.

Bobbie Ann Stewart Hunsaker
Bobbie Ann Stewart Hunsaker passed away peacefully, surrounded by her beloved family, in the same house she was born in 87 years before.
She lived a lot of places in between, accompanying her late husband, Col. Collin Hunsaker, in his career in the U.S. Army, living in such places as the Presidio in San Francisco, California; Dugway Proving Grounds, Utah; Ottawa, Canada; Ft. Ord, California; Ft. Richardson, Alaska; and several posts to the Pentagon in Washington, D.C.
She was a devout member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and, like her husband, a fervent patriot of the United States of America.
She was the precious youngest child born to Robert and Helen May Stewart. She had an idyllic childhood growing up in Brigham City, much adored by her three older sisters and two brothers. She fondly remembered a little lamb she had as a pet, who followed her everywhere she went.
She married Collin (her high school sweetheart) in the Logan LDS Temple, where they began their eternal journey. Their life on this earth was filled with travel, adventure, and spiritual journeys for 66 years.
She was a gifted musician who was equally at home playing hymns in church, or deftly performing challenging classical piano pieces by Chopin, Debussy, and Rachmaninoff. Over the course of her life she taught many little fingers to play as well.
As a lifelong member of the LDS Church, she held just about every office possible. She and Collin served a mission in Salt Lake City, working in the genealogy library. She was a proud and active member of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers.
Above all, Bobbie Ann’s family was important to her, the center of her life. It was her great joy to spend time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren, hosting them for countless Thanksgiving feasts, Christmas Eve talent shows (where she was always encouraging of those with less talent than she had), and fun trips to wilderness parks in the West, historical sites in the East, and long Alaskan odysseys.
She had countless friends she made everywhere she lived or traveled, and literally scores of nieces, nephews, and greats. She went to great pains to stay in touch with all of them, famously handwriting thousands of greeting cards for holidays, birthdays, weddings, births, and all manner of special events.
Bobbie Ann is survived by her son. David. and his wife, Annie, of Juneau, Alaska; daughter, Jeanne Perry, and her husband, Blair, of Honeyville; granddaughter, Megan Perry, her husband, Chris, and their daughter, Lexi; granddaughter, Jessica Scott, her husband, Jared, and their children: Aubrey, Hudson, Nathan, and Gavin of Kaysville; grandson, Matthew Perry of Brigham City; grandson, Braden Perry, and his wife, Kriste of Portland, Maine, who is expecting great-grandchild number six.
Bobbie spent most of the past year at Maple Springs Assisted Living in Brigham City, and the family would like to commend and thank the remarkable and compassionate staff there who took such good care of her. We’d also like to thank the hospice caregivers who made it possible for her to spend her last days in her own home.
In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be made to the LDS Church’s Humanitarian Aid Fund to honor Bobbie’s name.

Aliza Kendall-Thora Pedersen
On May 23, 2020, Aliza’s fourth birthday, Jesus called her name and she ran into His arms.
Aliza was born May 23, 2016, in Oklahoma to her first mumma, Allyssa. Despite all odds, Aliza was born perfect in so many ways. Aliza was born with just a brain stem—a diagnosis called Hydranencephaly that is generally regarded as “incompatible with life.” Mumma Allyssa knew she wanted her precious baby girl to have a life she could not give at that time, so she chose adoption.
Princess Aliza took a little while to find her forever family and was matched with our loving family at two months old. With help from heaven and our great adoption attorney, Paul Gosnell, it took only a month to bring her home. We lovingly call her our “oops” baby because she was a complete and wonderful surprise.
Princess Aliza was a sassy, stubborn, warrior befitting the royalty she was. She was determined to show doctors, therapists, and other experts that she was meant to do more. Her mascot was the bumble bee because of the Mary K. Ash quote, “Aerodynamically, the bumble bee shouldn’t be able to fly, but the bumble bee doesn’t know it, so it goes on flying anyway.”
She enjoyed balloons, nature, sticker art, glitter and sparkles, pink and purple, dolls, and holding hands. Princess Aliza loved animals—especially owls, petting and snuggling her dogs and cats, and riding ponies. She gave the biggest pouty lips if she ever left the house without earrings and a little friend. She participated in the annual Little Miss Wheelz Princess Pageant, reigning as Little Miss Sparkles two years running.
Her daddy was her hero and favorite person in the world. On days the world was too much for her, he was the only one who could calm the storm she was feeling. She loved getting glammed up by her mother, who loved her sparkling princess personality. Aliza’s big brother, Erik, was her best friend and partner in crime. Erik has a similar diagnosis, and every time they sat next to each other, they would somehow end up touching and holding hands. Then they would gab at each other in their own, nonverbal way. They loved to do projects together whenever they could. He greatly misses his “Aza.”
She is survived by her loving parents, William and Heather Pedersen; big brother, Erik; birth mom, Allyssa; grandparents, Kendall and Peggy Chambers, Arly Pedersen, and Charlene Pedersen; and many loved ones.
Many say Aliza was blessed to have us. But truly, it is the other way around. Every day with her was a true gift from above. She was the sparkle of our lives. We were so blessed to be her parents for four beautiful years. She filled a hole in our hearts that was so very empty. We know her physical absence will only be for a season. We are so grateful we could be sealed to Aliza for time and all eternity in the Logan Utah Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in September 2017.
Fly high our precious little bumblebee until you are in our arms again.
We would like to give a big thank you to Aliza’s “beekeepers” for their constant service, support, love, and encouragement through her life. Thank you to her specialty doctors, DMEs, therapists, and particularly her wonderful pediatrician, Dr. Nordell Brown and staff. Thank you to our local EMS, sheriff department and Logan Regional Hospital ER for seeing her worth and doing all they could trying to save her life. Thank you, Myers Mortuary, for taking such great care of our princess. And most of all, thank you, Aliza, for your light and spirit you shared so abundantly.
Because of COVID-19, we ask those who wish to join us in honoring Aliza to please take special precaution to protect Erik. Please wear a face covering and wash your hands upon arrival. If you are sick or have been around someone who is sick, please participate through electronic means that will be made available.
Services for Aliza will be held Monday, June 1, at 3 p.m. at Hyrum LDS Stake Center, 600 S. 220 East, Hyrum, Utah. A viewing will be held from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. at the church.
In lieu of flowers please make donations to Myers Mortuary in Brigham City to help with expenses.
