Buelah Christensen

Mayfield, UT

Buelah Ann Stenberg Christensen, 88, passed away peacefully on November 17, 2016 in Gunnison - twelve hours shy of her 89th birthday. She was surrounded by her loving family. Mom is free from the devastating affects of Alzheimers and we are thankful for her release and joyful reunion with Dad and loved ones gone before.

She was born on November 18, 1927 in Mayfield, Utah to loving parents, Albert and Rhoda Anderson Stenberg. Buelah married R Boyden Christensen June 28, 1947 in Mayfield, UT and was later solemnized in the Manti Temple. He preceded her in death on February 14, 2004. Together they raised 5 children. Kayleen (Weston) Jeffery, Ray (Laurel) Christensen, Jerolyn (Randy) Young, Candice (Roger) Willardson, Mitzi Crane.

Mom had many talents and gifts that not a lot of people knew. Mom was an excellent homemaker. She was Dad’s loving companion, our sweet and kind loving mother, and the grand and great-grandchildren’s perfect grandma. Some of Mom’s many talents were her cinnamon rolls and hot rolls. If you ever tasted one of them it was a little bit of heaven. Each one of the grandchildren received a hand stitched quilt upon birth and graduation. She was a hard worker and someone you could always depend on.

She is survived by her 5 children and brothers, John and Maynard Stenberg. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; sister, Vonda Asvitt; brothers, Jay Stenberg, Ned Stenberg; and son-in-law, Bradford Bell.
