Amy Marlene Carroll Hall, age 86, passed peacefully from this life on May 14, 2018 to her heavenly home to join her husband and loved ones in a sweet reunion. Marlene always felt it an honor to have been born on her parents’ (Elsie and Rulon Carroll) 6th anniversary on November 24, 1931. They were a strong influence in her life as they created a home of love and happiness for her and her 7 siblings in Orderville, Utah. She was also lovingly nurtured by grandparents, aunts and uncles, and the many cousins who were her best friends. At age 11, Marlene started helping her father in his store and café. The Carroll family relocated to Emmett, Idaho when Marlene was 13 years old, arriving in Emmett on July 4, 1945. Her father bought a farm, and they all worked together to make it successful. Marlene graduated from Emmett High School in 1950. Being 1st chair in the clarinet section of the band, she was asked to play a clarinet solo for graduation. She had also played with the pep band at all the games.
Marlene married Theron E. Hall on October 2, 1950 in the Logan Utah Temple. They settled in Emmett to farm and to raise a family. They were blessed with 8 children: Marian, Edward, Debra and Denise (twins who lived just 2 days), a stillborn daughter, and then they adopted Mark, Fred, and Ralph. After the kids left home, they then raised 3 of their young grandchildren.
The last 6 years, Marlene and Theron have lived in an assisted living facility and then at River’s Edge Living Center. The family appreciates the care and kindness shown to them by staff and residents.
