LaVern Larsen CLINTON - On February 7, 2010 we lost our loving wife, mother, grandmother and great-grandmother to a long battle with cancer. She was reunited with her Heavenly Father, parents, and son. She was born on May 24, 1937 to Royal and Leona Parkinson. She attended Ogden High School and graduated in 1955. She later married Maxwell Charlesworth and had three children Deborah, Patrick, and Doug. They were later divorced. She met her eternal companion, Richard Larsen and was married on December 29, 1970. They were later solemnized in the Ogden Temple. Later they had one child Daniel. She resided in Clinton and held many callings in Relief Society and Primary in the Clinton 1st and 20th Wards. She loved spending time doing craftwork and doing service to others in her church callings. She fought a valiant fight and will be sorely missed.
