NaDene Thorn Bartholomew

NaDene was born to Norman R. and Helen Stickney Thorn on May 19, 1954 in Spanish Fork, UT. She was married to Ron O. Bartholomew of Spanish Fork, UT on May 24, 1974. They moved to Kansas in 1978.

NaDene is survived by her husband, Ron, and their 8 children: Clinton (Janet), Cynthia (Marty Millsap), Denise (Jason Black), Tony (Susan), Daniel (Sabrina), Tina (Nathan Markham), Stephen (Heather), and Joseph (Heather); by her Sister, Norma Rae Thorn (Alan Johnson), and by her 27 grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her parents and older sister, La Wana Thorn.

NaDene was a mother to many who shared her love through her service and skillful sewing abilities. She was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She loved to travel all over the country to see her children and grandchildren, and rarely let her physical challenges stop her from helping to decorate and celebrate weddings, baby showers, and other special occasions. In her recent years she relished being a kid again as she loved creating fairies and doll clothes.

Visitation will be held at 10:00am followed by funeral services at 11:00am on Saturday, November 6th at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints located at 15915 West 143rd St, Olathe, KS.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to The Humanitarian Fund of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Philanthropies. 100% of proceeds support direct aid.
