Gustie R Conradsen

A wonderful lady has been re-united with her eternal companion. Gustie was born July 5, 1929, to Anna Baker and Gerald Thompson in Salt Lake City, Utah. When she was still a toddler, her mother died. Gustie and her brother were raised in a humble and loving home by Uncle Carl and Aunt Bessie Larson. They became a family of 12 children. After graduating from West High School, she earned her B.S. degree as a Registered Nurse from the University of Utah. Here she developed lifelong friendships while in nursing school. Gustie married Rex Conradsen August 14, 1951, in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. They lived and raised their three children in Magna, Utah. Gustie had the ability of making everyone feel welcome. She became a loved and respected friend to many in the community while working at the local doctor’s office. She loved sewing, painting, needlework, M & M’s, Diet Pepsi, baking candy cane cookies, and collecting thimbles. Prior to Rex’s passing, they loved to travel in their 5th wheel with the Good Sam’s. She is a member of the LDS Church and has a strong testimony of the gospel and her savior.

Gustie is preceded in death by her husband of 60 years, Rex, three brothers, and two sisters. Survived by children, Colby (Mark) Heddlesten, Tina (Karl) Green and Kent (Ammy); ten grandchildren and spouses; many great grandchildren; four sisters, and two brothers.
