In Memoriam

The purpose of this blog is to honor our former classmates who attended Bountiful High School as members of the class of 1965 and are now deceased. These souls, who have gone before us, were our friends, our associates, and an important part of our own history. They deserve to be remembered. We were able to research a school photo for most of these former classmates. We have also located obituaries for many of them, and have included statistical information regarding the death of those for whom an obituary was not found. 

Our profound thanks to all of our friends who have sent information to assist us in preparing this labor of love. Researched and compiled by Yvonne Rasmussen and Diane Day.

**Due to Blogger limitations, dates for those who passed before 1970 will display inaccurately in the chronological list. You'll find those classmates' obituaries listed under 1970.

Myra Wilson





















Myra Catherine Wilson Gagnier, 67, of Yakima, died Sunday, December 7, 2014 at Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital surrounded by her loving family.

Myra was born April 26, 1947 in Bingham Canyon, Utah to William James and Joyce (Smith) Wilson. Her childhood was spent in the Kennecott Copper area of Western Utah where her father was a postal worker who would sometimes carry her around in his mail bag. Myra moved to the Bountiful, Utah area for her K-12 education where she graduated from Bountiful High School in June 1965. She attended BYU in the fall of 1965 where she met her future husband, Rick. They married June 30, 1967 in the LDS Temple in Salt Lake City, UT. After Rick's graduation, they moved to Western Washington for approximately five years. In 1973 the family moved to Moses Lake, Washington and then later to Yakima where she has lived for over 35 years. She worked as a secretary for Davis High School for over 20 years, retiring in 2009.

Myra greatly loved her children and grandchildren, choosing to spend a lot of time either with them or thinking about them. She was a beloved wife, mother, and grandmother.
