HUNTINGTON - Lucy Brown, 95, returned to her Heavenly Father March 11, 2008.

She married Clifton Brown March 25, 1949 (solemnized in the Manti Temple January 31, 1964) and lived and worked in Huntington, Utah for most of her remaining years. She was a hard worker and enjoyed working outside on the farm; always having a large garden and sharing with her friends and neighbors. If you ever came to visit Lucy, you always had to have something to eat, even if you were already stuffed. She loved working with the missionaries, and always took care of them by feeding them at her home or taking them out to eat. She assisted the missionaries by translating for them when they taught the Spanish-speaking people of Huntington. Lucy is known as a quilter by her family and friends, and many people have her handiwork in their homes. We will always be warmed by her efforts.
