Obituary


Verle Mc Noyes of Morgan left this world on Sept. 3, 2012. He was born in Hanksville, Ut. On Aug. 2, 1920 to John Henry (Hyrum) and Edith Jane McDougal Noyes. He was the seventh of eight children. At age 5 the family moved to Idaho and settled in the Burley/Declo area.

Mc married Doris Egbert in 1943 in the Salt Lake LDS temple. They farmed a few years in Idaho then moved to Morgan Utah in 1949.

Mc provided for his wife and thirteen children by dairying and farming. He also worked at the Union Pacific Railroad, at the Morgan County Building, and at Clarks Feed and Seed.

Mc’s church service included; serving in two bishoprics, scouting and the young men’s organization. His favorite church service, however, was teaching the gospel and bearing his testimony. Doris and Mc served a proselytizing mission to Alabama and a temple mission to Washington D.C.

Mc was a member of the Utah Farm Bureau and American Dairymen’s Association. He served on the Morgan Co. School Board for 14 years. During that time he was instrumental in getting the DATC built. Mc also served on the Milton Cemetery Committee and was instrumental in many of the improvements there.

Mc is survived by 12 of his children: Verla Hasler, Don, Eva Clark, Marie Phippen, Gale, Lloyd, Joyce Miley, Marilyn Hardman, John, Norman, Nina Anderson, and Jane Williamson. He had 74 grandchildren, 150 plus great grandchildren and 3 great-great grandchildren.

His wife Doris, a daughter Barbara Iverson and a grandson Andy Iverson preceded him in death.

Special thanks to Marilyn and Steven Hardman, and their family, for their tender care, which allowed Mc to stay in his home the last seven years. Also thanks to Access Hospice for their compassionate help in his final days.
