ANSTA LUCILE HIGLEY

ROY - Ansta Lucile Dawson Higley passed away on August 9, 2005 at the Heritage Park Care Center in Roy.

She was born to Fannie and John Dawson on December 11, 1919 in Clinton, Utah where she grew up working alongside her eight siblings on the family's
farm and orchard.

Ansta was a very hard worker and contributed much as a valued employee in several positions over the course of her lifetime. After graduating from Weber High School she began working at the shipyard in Oregon, then later at the box factory in Ogden, the Arsenal and finally at Hill Air Force Base.

Ansta married Clarence Higley on August 26, 1944 in Ogden, Utah. They settled in Roy where they raised three children Keith, Marie and Janette. Ansta was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and sister who loved her family very much. Her siblings remember the many family reunions that she planned and organized and that she was a great cook.

Ansta was also an excellent driver and enjoyed going on road trips with her husband and sisters to Salt Lake, Las Vegas and Wendover. She loved going to see movies and gardening with her husband and was always sharing the bounty of their garden with family and neighbors.

Ansta was a most kind, gracious and friendly person who gave everything that she had to others. It was an honor to know her and she will be greatly missed.

Ansta is survived by three grandchildren Keith Higley and Rachel and Sarah Collmeyer, three sisters Norma Cragun, Lois Geddes and Virginia Kaser and two brothers Joseph and Wilbert Dawson.

She was preceded in death by her husband Clarence and her three children Keith and Marie Higley and Janette Collmeyer.
