Suchapan P. Saunders

“Oy”

Our loving wife and devoted mother passed away while giving life to her son on September 1, 2011.

Oy was born in Thailand on March 29, 1980 to Nopachai and Aumporn Pongopas.  She graduated from the University of Utah.  Suchapan was employed by ARUP where she met Calvin Saunders.  They were married June 17, 2007 and began their life together.  She will be remembered as a caring, beautiful and forthright woman who was totally devoted to her family.

She is survived by the love of her life, Calvin; toddling daughter McKinley Grace; newborn son Jayden Christopher; her parents; her brother; American parents John and Nit Limley; and a host of in-laws, extended family members and friends.

A viewing will be held on Monday from 4:00 until 6:00 PM at Starks Funeral Parlor, 3651 South 900 East, Salt Lake City.

Donations for her children McKinley and Jayden may be made at any Key Bank location.

In Loving Memory

จะขอคิดถึงเธอตลอดไป

Thailand, ay

May you be comforted by the Bibles promise of the resurrection, and an end to sickness, pain and death forever. (John 5:28,29; Rev.21:4; Isaiah 25:8) May you receive peace and strength.

I want to give you my deepest sympathy. Oy was one of my patients. She was a great and beautiful person. She always had a smile on her face and joy in her heart. She is greatly missed in my office.

Oy was so good to me at work. She was tremendously organized and was always willing to help me with anything. She was so fun to talk with, and we did a LOT of laughing. She loved her family very much, and talked of them often. Missing her!!

I worked with Oy for many years at ARUP, she was always a pleasure to be around. I was amazed by her strength and willingness to laugh even during difficult times. She loved to talk about her family and the joys and challenges that come with it. Oy will be deeply missed by her friends at ARUP.

Some things in life happen far too soon and out of natural order. When they do, we are left wondering for the rest of our lives. I will miss working with Oy and will often think of her. I will also think of Calvin and their two beautiful children. Be strong for them Calvin, they need you. Her passing does not make sense, but her spirit is alive and well with McKinley and now Jayden. I lost a parent when I was a young child and I still hold dear to me, these words. ?Honor thy mother's name, she will know?. My most sincere condolences go out to Oy's entire family.
