Harris Dean Larson was born 3 August 1928 in Moroni, Sanpete County, Utah.

This last week was his last in mortality here on this earth. He passed away 15 May 2012 in St. George, Washington County, Utah.
He married Vonda Gay Ivory on 8 June 1946 in Manti, Sanpete County, Utah. They were sealed for time and all eternity in the Manti Temple three years later on 7 November 1949. 

Today was Uncle Dean's funeral, held in St. George. The service was beautiful and reflected Dean with all of his humor, love for others, his love the Savior and his honor for the Priesthood. 
We will all miss Uncle Dean very much, but we know that we will one day see him again and be able to feel of his love and presence. 

To Aunt Vonda, we all love you very much and are so blessed to have you in our lives. I personally love coming and staying at your house and all the fun we have playing games late into the evening. 

Below are some photographs reflecting Dean's life and family. We love you Dean!
 
 
Over the past few months research on the Ivory family has continued and more organization in pictures, documents and other information has been done.

Although there haven't been a lot of blog posts written about the research done, plenty of work has been completed.

One of my goals lately has been to make sure I have all the U.S. Federal Census records for all of my direct ancestors for 5 generations, including my mother's side of the family.

I have spent a good portion of the day going through my great-great grandfather, Soren Severin Nielsen and his family.
