Mavis Lorraine Reed Woodman, age 88, passed away peacefully at home surrounded by her family in Erda, Utah on August 17, 2021 after a short battle with cancer.

Mavis was born May 23, 1933 in Kelso, WA to Warren Walter Reed and Bertha Mae Davis Reed. She attended Washington Elementary in Kelso and Lakeside Junior Academy in Longview, WA. On October 16, 1949 she was united in marriage to John Warner Woodman in Kelso, WA. John and Mavis moved to Roseburg, OR soon after their marriage. They also lived at “Camp Comfort,” a logging camp, near Tiller, OR for several months. In 1966 John and Mavis moved the family to Utah where they resided in Spanish Fork, Springville and West Valley City. After John’s death, Mavis moved to Erda to live with her son, Steve.

Mavis was an avid bowler and loved the outdoors. She enjoyed gardening, camping, and boating. Her family meant the most to her, and she enjoyed watching her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren in all of their activities.
