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.

Linda Sue Whyte


Linda Sue White lost her fight against dementia on June 17, 2021.  She passed away peacefully at home surrounded by family and friends.

Linda was born June 30, 1947 in SLC, to David and Jetta B. Whyte.  As a young child, Linda liked to learn, which led her to teaching.  She loved inspiring young kids to learn.  Linda taught 2nd grade in Granite School District for 13 years.  She then found a passion for teaching Kindergarten which she taught in Davis School District for 19 years.

Linda always loved finding little lessons in life and passing them on to whoever would listen.  Married Terry E. White on Aug 1, 1975 and together raised 3 daughters.  Linda was a fun, free spirit who loved to travel.  Whether the vacation was planned months ahead or a spur of the moment road trip.

Linda was preceded in death by her husband Terry E. White, her parents David & Jetta Whyte and her brother Dan E. Whyte.  She is survived by her daughters Darcy (Dave) Adamson, Jana White, and Kori White.  Her sisters Bonnie Whyte and Jacklyn Gailey and her brothers Terry (Merrilee) Whyte and David (Karen) Whyte.  Grandchildren Kaden, Rylan, and Jacee Adamson, and numerous nieces and nephews.

A viewing will be held Thursday, June 24th at Russon Mortuary in Bountiful from 6-8 p.m.  On Friday, June 25th there will be a short viewing from 9:30-10:30 a.m. followed by a funeral at 11:00 a.m. at the church at 585 E. Center Street.  She will be buried at Memorial Estates Lakeview Cemetery.

We would like to send our appreciation and gratitude to all who took care of Linda at Encompass Hospice.

In lieu of flowers please make donations to the Utah Humane Society because Linda wanted to help all animals.
