Like mother like daughter....that is the beauty of Bernice Royce and her daughter Jean, who was the 1954 Co-Queen of the Mt. Chapter of the FFA.

This is the partial story of the Juab County Royce family. Once we get security clearance, we can write of  three generations of the male portion of the Royce family. For now, we will write of the female beauty of the Royce family. Bernice Royce passed away at the age of 87, but from the get go, she was pretty as a Peacock! That was a name on her mothers side, but she did have the natural beauty, from deep inside to her charming smile on the outside. She was raised during the depression, and lost her father when she was just ten, but always demonstrated a happy and gleeful spirit. She enjoyed her family foremost, but loved her work as a dietitian at the Juab County Hospital and for the Juab School Lunch program. She and husband Don loved their four kids, of which one is the beauty queen shown. Although the Tribune article didn't get it quite right-saying it was the "Richfield Ball", they did hit the nail on the head when they wrote "three pretty coeds", being Jean Royce (Lee); Ranae Westring and Iona McPherson.
