Our beloved Jolene D. Nelson was born on May 31, 1946 in Panguitch, Utah to Dale and Mary Alice Dickinson. She was one of 7 children. She later moved to Granger, Utah. She married Gary Wade Nelson in 1967. They had two children: Michelle Adell in July, 1966 and Ryan Gary in October 1972. She loved her children with all her heart. When her grandchildren were born, she was even happier. She was the one thing holding everything together for everybody. She was the backbone for many! She was a very strong, special, kind, helpful, beautiful person all the way around. Her beautiful smiles, funny laugh, touch… She was a beautiful soul. She touched the lives of many and she will be missed so much.

She touched many and will be missed dearly.
