Staci loved her family, friends, her dogs, 80's rock music, Moab, breakfast burritos, movie nights.. not to mention her Diet Coke and coffee. She made friends anywhere she went. She was a warm light that graced any room she walked into, with her beautiful smile and infectious laugh. To know her, was to love her.
"With careful eyes we watched you
we saw you pass away.
Although we love you dearly
we could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped beating
hardworking hands to rest.
God broke our hearts to prove to us
he only takes the best."
Mom, we will miss you more than words can explain. Moving forward without you will be the hardest thing we've ever had to do but we know your spirit will be by our side every step of the way.
Love,
Your Girls.
Funeral services will be held Saturday August 20th at 2:00pm at Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park and Mortuary. All who would like to pay their respects are welcome.
