Laurel Ann Braithwaite

August 11, 1949 ~ August 13, 2019

Laurel Ann Braithwaite passed away August 13, 2019 from a lingering illness. She was born August 11, 1949 in Logan, Utah to Neldon H. and Lois Buttars Braithwaite.

Education was very important to her. She graduated from Ben Lomond High School, received a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from Weber State College, and a Masters Degree from Utah State University.

She had hundreds of students who passed through her classrooms at Edison and Lynn Elementary Schools. She loved teaching. It was her life.

Laurel was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She served in the Primary Presidency, Relief Society Presidency, served as teacher, organist, and in several other positions.

Her hobbies were numerous. Her favorites were reading her books, playing cards with her friends, ceramics, counted cross stitch, and needlepoint, just to name a few.

Laurel is survived by her sister, Elaine (Bob) Holden; brother, John (Janet) Braithwaite; nieces, Amy (Kandi Mlynar) Bingham, Elizabeth Bingham, and Kiersten (Joshua) Johnston; and nephew, Jared (Cortney Kochevar) Braithwaite. She was preceded in death by her parents, Neldon and Lois Braithwaite.

Graveside services will be held on Saturday, August 24, 2019 at 10 a.m. at the Clarkston Cemetery, Clarkston, Utah. Friends may visit with family on Friday from 6 to 8 p.m. at Lindquist’s Ogden Mortuary, 3408 Washington Blvd.

The family would like to thank the staff at Pineview Rehabilitation Center, and also the doctors and nurses at McKay Dee Hospital ICU Unit. They were all awesome. We couldn’t have asked for better care.
