Joseph Francis Oliver Obituary (1917 - 2006)

CLEARFIELD - Joseph Francis Oliver, 88, passed away Thursday, March 16, 2006 at Rocky Mountain Care Center. He was born May 24, 1917 in New York City, NY to Francis Elmer Oliver and Rose Mary Smith. He married Margery T. Deno on April 4, 1994; she preceded him in death on November 10, 1999. He married Laurel Bock on July 13, 2005. She brought him great, albeit brief joy this past year. She was the light of his life. At the age of 82, Joe joined the LDS Church and a year later received his endowments in the San Diego Temple. Joe loved to read, loved people and enjoyed discussing religious philosophy with them. Recently he looked forward to working in the temple and wished his health had remained good so he could have attended more frequently. He loved his children and especially found great joy and love in his grandchildren. Surviving are his wife Laurel of Clearfield; one son and three daughters, Nancy Daly of New Jersey; Greg Oliver of California; Leslie Merriam of Huntsville; Kelly Westbrook of California; 13 grandchildren; and four great grandchildren. We love you and will miss you very much. Graveside services will be held on Monday, March 20, 2006 at 3 p.m. at Evergreen Memorial Park, 100 Monroe Blvd. in Ogden.
