Debbie Stringham
May 5, 1954 — June 20, 2024
Laketown, UtahOur beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend Debbie Stringham, age 70, passed away at her home in Laketown, Utah on June 20, 2024 after a battle with cancer.
Debbie is the daughter of Ivan and Kae Weston. She was born in Logan, Utah on May 5, 1954.
Mom was raised in Laketown as the third of seven children. She loved spending time with her family, having picnics, and going to Temple Flat. Her childhood was a happy one. Her relationship with her siblings was a blessing throughout her life. She graduated from North Rich High School where she was on student council and a cheerleader. She went on to attend Utah State University. She had many dear friends, most of whom remained her friends throughout her life. Mom was a very loyal person.
Debbie married Dan Stringham on March 6, 1976, in Logan Utah Temple. They were married for 48 years and blessed with two children and seven grandchildren. No family event was complete without a joke from Dad and Mom rolling her eyes beside him. They balanced each other out. Mom was our rock, the foundation that taught us, the nurturer who loved us, and the glue who kept us close.
She served as Postmaster in Laketown for 30+ years. No one could run a business as efficiently as she did. She managed her home in a similar manner, with order and cleanliness. She enjoyed making her home beautiful with flowers and décor. Her motto was to work before you play. The problem was, the work was never done.
Mom was talented at playing the piano and organ which she did for many years. She also served in many various callings and was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints her entire life. She always found ways to serve others and made them feel important, especially remembering everyone’s birthdays and special events.
One of her greatest joys was being a grandma. She spoiled her grandkids and loved every opportunity to see them. They will have a very special guardian angel.
Our family would like to thank everyone for their many acts of love and kindness as they exemplified the way Mom tried to live. We also express our appreciation to Mom’s hospice nurse for her special care in Mom’s final days.
Mom is preceded in death by her parents, Ivan and Kae.
She is survived by her husband, Dan; her two children, Ryan (Kylie) Stringham of Richmond, Lori (Wade) Cornia of Nibley, grandchildren MacKenzie, Brock, Jaxon, Brynlie, Boston, Addi, and Jagger, her dear siblings, Sherilyn (Steve) Rex, Dixon (RaNae) Weston, Annette (Kelvin) Pugmire, Pauline (Mike) Williamson, Patti (Bart) Argyle, Jim (Lynn) Weston, and many beloved nieces and nephews.

Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend was finally called on his mission to serve beyond the veil on September 5, 2002.
He passed suddenly and quietly in his home following routine surgery.
Grant Harvey was born September 20, 1932 in Kaysville to Doritt Harvey and Benjamin Orlo Brough. He was the sixth of nine children.
He married his childhood sweetheart Margaret Atwood from West Jordan, Utah on June 16, 1952 in the Salt Lake Temple.
Grant graduated from his beloved Davis High in 1950 where he played football and ran track. He is a true Davis Dart to this day.
He went on to play football, basketball and track at Weber State College and graduated from the University of Utah in 1955 with a degree in Psychology.
Harvey worked for a time with his family business of building and selling homes and then worked for Waterfall Construction in Ogden.
"Harvey" went on to be an important inspiration to the troubled and fatherless boys that he worked with at the Clearfield Job Corps from 1966 to 1973.
Many of them called him "dad".
As an adult probation and parole officer he touched and changed the lives of many.
At the time of his death he served as his son Scott's favorite art critic and as his grandchildren's coach in their many activities. Harvey loved to fish, enjoyed all sports, and loved to laugh.
Harvey was a "Miracle Man" these past four years surviving countless serious health problems. He was an inspiration to his family who thrived in his love and rejoiced in the happiness that he carried with him. He loved his wife more than anything and their true love and dedication to each other has been the greatest love story ever written.
Harvey is survived by his wife, Margaret, and their five children: Margaret (Norman) Wahlstrom, Fruit Heights; Stephanie (Bret) Butterfield, Layton; Grant (Cindy), Fruit Heights; Scott (Marisa), Kaysville; Michael, Clinton; 14 grandchildren, and one great-granddaughter.
