On June 20, 2016, our loving mother, sister, wife and friend passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her family after suffering a lengthy battle with Alzheimer’s. Her sweet smile and sense of humor will surely be missed.
She was born on October 6, 1941 to Edward F. and Leora May Grover Larsen, the 3rd of 5 children. On December 6, 1958, she married Robert Cornelius (Neil)) McCully. From this union, she had 3 children; Donna K. (Myland) Burke, Robert J. (Janae) McCully, and Joy J. (Steve) Sharbutt. In August of 1986, she married Gordon F. Jarman. On May 10, 1991, her dream came true when she received her temple recommend in the LDS Church.
Mom loved her gardens, canning everything she grew, and teaching her children to do the same. Her favorite thing to do in the fall was to go hunting, which she had a shot record for everything she shot. She could out fish any man. As an all-around artist, she loved painting, crocheting, knitting, and sewing. She even made her youngest daughter’s wedding dress.
Mom is survived by her 3 children, 11 grandchildren, 29 great grandchildren, 2 great-great grandchildren, 1 brother, 2 sisters, and many aunts, uncles, nieces, and nephews too numerous to count. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, Gordon, an infant sister, 1 son-in-law, 2 grandchildren, and 1 great grandchild.
The family would like to give special thanks to Country Niche for making her last year a special one and Dr. Alan Abdula, a special thank you to the neighbors and businesses in my mom’s neighborhood (too many to name) for their watchful eye and concern for my mother these last few years, and a very special thanks to those family members who were by her side to the very end.
