Chloe Ann Nostrom, age 23, passed away December 23rd, 2022 in the loving arms of her mother and surrounded by her family in her home. She was born September 29th, 1999 in Salt Lake City, Utah. The world lost a bright shining light that day. Our family lost a daughter, sister, granddaughter, cousin, niece, friend, confidant, and so much more. Words cannot describe the loss we all feel. From her first breath, Chloe faced many challenges. She had less than a 10% chance of survival, but she lived. She was a sassy little spitfire and her mom let her own that because that is what kept her fighting everyday. We believe that Chloe knew before she came of the obstacles she would face on earth and she still chose this life. "Though she be but little, she is fierce" Chloe endured many procedures and operations in her short life. She spent many days, weeks and months in the hospital and oftentimes being told she wasn't going to make it or there is nothing we can do, but she never faltered in her belief that she would make it through and all would be well. She proved the doctors wrong more times than not and they loved Chloe for her determination and grit. Chloe had the scars to prove her battle wounds, but she never liked them showing or for others to see them. "She knew she could, so she did" We as a family knew that throughout her life Chloe must have been in pain and suffering, but she never complained. We would always ask how she was and she would always say "I'm fine. Don't worry about me. Let's call and see if Grandma and Grandpa want to come down and play a game." Everything Chloe had to face, she always did with grace, determination, a smile on her face and a beautiful twinkle in her eye. She never wavered in her beliefs and hope for the future. Through her faith and testimony of Jesus Christ, she was determined to live her life to the fullest and never back down from a challenge. Nothing stopped this beautiful young woman from achieving anything she ever set her mind to. Her family, relatives and friends witnessed many miracles because of her faith and testimony of Jesus Christ. "The devil whispered in Chloe's ear: 'you're not strong enough to withstand the storm.' Chloe replied: 'I am a Child of God, a Woman of faith, a Warrior of Christ. I AM the storm'" She was loved by many, but her love for others was undeniable. She loved being around her family, planning parties, celebrating holidays, traveling, decorating, making new food, trying new foods, planning stuff for her mom's classroom and always keeping tabs on the family to make sure everyone was ok. Chloe is so good and pure and was obviously here to teach us all. She was never on this earth for her, but to make all of us around her better. Her spirit radiated all around her and she touched so many lives. In remembrance of Chloe - take an adventure, make someone smile, tell a loved one you love them and give them a hug, try some new food, play games and just have fun. We would love for you to share your adventures using #DoitforChloeAnn on social media. Chloe left behind parents, Kim and Rob Panter, Jeff and Gena Nostrom; brothers, Kaden and Hawker Nostrom; sisters, Cara Clark, Kirsten Kaye, Sophie Nostrom; grandparents, Tony and Carol Baer, Jeff and Claudia Nostrom; and many beloved aunts, uncles, and cousins.

Mark Perry Starks passed away 9/9/22 in the Utah Valley Hospital after valiantly facing several years of extraordinary health challenges. His last evening was spent with family reliving fun memories and adventures of his life and youth. Stories of great friends and experiences brought smiles and laughter to him, leading him to express appreciation for his many friends and family members even as his body failed him. He felt gratitude towards too many to be named. Mark greatly valued his friends. Mark was born August 16th 1962 in Southern California to Dan and LaDawn Starks. He was the 2nd of six eventual children. In the early 1970's, the Starks family moved to the Cache Valley where Mark would grow up and would eventually return to for his last years. Mark attended both Sky View and Logan High Schools, graduating in 1980. From there, Mark began a series of firsts, blazing a trail for his younger siblings to follow. Mark was the first of his siblings to go to college, eventually graduating from USU with a degree in Philosophy. He would also obtain a Master's degree in Business as well. Mark was the first in the family to serve a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints to upstate New York. And now, Mark points us forward as he leads us all into our eventual destinies, giving us the opportunity to reflect on the meaning and direction of our lives. He was undaunted, doing the hard things so others can follow. Mark enjoyed developing his mind and learned to discipline himself to make the most of his intellectual pursuits. He also had an appreciation for his body and spent considerable time developing his notable strength at the gym. He had a spiritual, sensitive nature as well and wanted to please his Heavenly Father. Of course, in the end, Mark's last conversations were about the love he felt for his many friends and family and the appreciation he felt for the many wonderful experiences he had enjoyed. He left this world knowing it was his time. He continues his adventures and associations in a new realm. Mark was preceded in death by his mother, Ruth LaDawn Starks. He is survived by his father Daniel as well as five siblings; Shawn, Robin, Holly, Bob and Heather. Special recognition to the medical care takers who assisted Mark in his passing and over the past several years during his illness. A private ceremony will be held in the Lewiston, Utah cemetery where Mark will be laid to rest with his mother, LaDawn.

LeeAnn Hull, beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother passed away peacefully in her sleep on August 23rd in Hyrum, Utah at the age of 75. LeeAnn was born on January 26, 1947, to Clair and Blanche Hull in Preston, Idaho. She was the second of nine children. She spent her childhood growing up in Cub River, Idaho with her family. They raised milk cows. One of mom's jobs was to gather the cows to be milked. Before and after school she would feed the baby calves. The school was an hour and a half bus ride. When she was a little older, she would work at Deer Cliff Inn during the summers. She made a lot of fun memories there. In her senior year of high school at Preston High, she was the head cheerleader and school mascot. She was a member of the Baton Corps. She was nick-named "Sparkle Plenty" because of her beautiful blue eyes. She truly is a beauty. Mom made friends easily. She has a quick smile and witty personality. People were naturally drawn to her. Mom loved her family unconditionally with all her heart. She was a gifted listener. In her eyes, her family was the smartest, best-looking, and most talented. If we needed a shot of self-confidence, mom was the one to visit. She enjoyed spending time with her family every chance she could. She was saddened to be burdened with health challenges that limited her ability to attend activities with her kids and grandkids. Yet she never complained about her circumstances, she was more concerned about building others up. She was able to overcome many challenges and showed us the best example of courage, strength, and charity. We are happy to know she will enjoy her health once again. LeeAnn was a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and served in many callings over the years. She always had a smile and a kind word. She was a fun primary president for years; her flannel and felt-made object lessons were always a big hit with the primary kids. She was a creative homemaker; she made her own cabbage patch dolls with custom clothes. They looked better than the store-bought to us. She baked us fun birthday cakes, usually a Raggedy Ann or Raggedy Andy. She made killer Carmel popcorn for a family treat that we all loved. She is survived by her 7 children: Bill (Andrea) Rinderknecht, Heidi (Aaron) Klopfenstein, Jayson Rinderknecht, Jodi May, Jeremie (Keesha) Rinderknecht, Tifiny (Josh) Tolman, Robin (Cort) Cooper, 23 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her daughter, Laurie Rinderknecht, her parents Clair and Blanche Hull and her brothers Kent Hull and Steven Hull. Funeral services will be held on Saturday, August 27, 2022, at 11:00 am at Franklin County Funeral Home, 56 S State Street, Preston, Idaho. There will be a viewing from 9:30 to 10:30. She will be buried in the Whitney Cemetery. For those not able to attend in person, there will be a live streaming video of the service.

Mary Veronica "Mary V" (Mason) Kolesar passed peacefully July 12, 2022, at Logan Regional Hospital after a short but brave battle with lung cancer. Mary Veronica was born in Bridgeport, CT, on January 15, 1943, to Angelina Veronica and John Mason. She was the second of 3 children. In August of 1965 she married the man with whom she would share the rest of her life, her high school sweetheart, Peter Kolesar. They had 2 children, Michael and Matt, but this nuclear family was simply the center of an extended "family" that Mary V created. Everyone she met was a friend she didn't know yet, and her huge heart considered every friend as family. She was famous for her parties, did someone say 'potluck'? and would often have students and others away from their own families over for dinner. Food was a huge part of her life, and as a cook she excelled, even when it came out "just the way we like it". She included the entire small but growing Catholic community in Cache Valley in her extended family, and her deeply religious convictions were the touchstone for everything she did. Her passions over-flowed to her love of nature, with frequent camping and cross-country ski trips taken with friends and family, and her aggressive concern for the environment. She was an environmental advocate long before it became trendy, espousing water conversation, recycling and waste reduction. She was a lifelong student, who after earning her masters in statistics, became a beloved teacher and mentor at Utah State University, helping to bring the burgeoning computer science department to life. She remained active at the university until her retirement. Mary Veronica will be reunited with her sister Joan, and is survived by her husband Peter, children Michael and Matt, grandchildren Brandon and Tyson, and brother Fr. Dennis Mason. The family would like to extend their gratitude to "Team Mary V": Ginger Anderson, Janet Fiesinger, Kathy Chudoba and Anne Elsweiler, for their tireless and selfless care of Mary Veronica during her tribulations, and for their compassionate support of the remaining family. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations to Alzheimer's Foundation of America ( https://act.alz.org/site/TR?fr_id=15924&pg=team&team_id=734107 ) or Covenant House ( https://www.covenanthouse.org/ ) Services will be held at Allen Mortuary and St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church: Sunday, July 17 - Allen Hall Mortuary, 420 E 1800 N, North Logan, UT 6:30-8pm Visitation and Viewing 8pm Wake - This will be informal and reflect Mary Veronica's spirited and loving personality. People will be invited to share short personal stories and reflections. Laughter and knowing smiles encouraged. Monday, July 18 - St. Thomas Aquinas Catholic Church, 725 S 250 E, Hyde Park, UT 1:30pm - Mass of the Resurrection. Reception will follow in the Sandoval Social Hall. None of the services will be live-streamed. We hope you can join us physically or in spirit to celebrate the life of this amazing woman and earthly angel - Mary Veronica Kolesar. www.allenmortuaries.com
