Marion Dimond

Marion Pack Dimond, 84 passed away peacefully and quickly at Covington Senior Living Center in Orem, Utah on January 4, 2020, after suffering a fall a few days before.  She was born in Grace, Idaho on September 24, 1935, to John Terrell and Mardean Izatt Pack. She graduated from Grace High School and attended LDS Business College where she met her sweet heart and eternal companion, Harvey Dale Dimond.  They were sealed in the Salt Lake Temple on September 3, 1954.

Harvey and Marion chose to settle in Orem, Utah where they raised their five children.  She supported them through schooling, athletics, music, dance, theatre, missions, and life.  She loves her children and sacrificed to provide them with opportunities.  She loves her grandchildren and great-grandchildren and was so excited when they would come to her home and head straight to the “Cookie Drawer.”  She is a wonderful mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother who is now supporting us from the other side of the veil.

Marion was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served as a Mia-Maid leader for many years, a Young Women’s President, Stake Young Women’s President, and Relief Society President.  She was asked and felt honored to serve on a Church committee helping to create the first Young Women’s Personal Progress program.  Marion was a woman of great faith and integrity who followed the promptings of the Spirit.  She served her Father in Heaven by serving and loving His children.

After Harvey passed away five years ago, Marion moved to Lindon, Utah living with her daughter Karen and her son-in-law Wade who cared and served her faithfully.  When her needs increased four months ago, she moved to Covington Senior Living Center in Orem.  As a family we would like to express our appreciation to the staff and residents who made her last days so enjoyable allowing her to thrive.

She was preceded in death by her parents, brother-in-law Rusty Halling, sister-in-law Lucy Benalee Call Pack, daughter-in-law Judy (Dave) Dimond and grandson Carson (Steve) Dimond.  She is survived by children David (Anne) Dimond, Karen (Wade) Stevens, Renae (Tim) Preston, Joe (Wendy) Dimond, Stephen (Annalee) Dimond, and a host of beloved grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
