Rula Gowers was 100 years old, but died young!

Rula Yearsley was born in Malad, Idaho, one of 9 children, so she learned early how to sleep in a bed with three siblings laying crossways. While attending college in Logan, she met Don Gowers, and quickly decided to become a Nephite, being welcomed and admired in Juab County for her devotion to family, community and church. She also had an enormous love for music and shared her talents for nearly a century. Not only she played the piano well, but passed her music skill on to her kin, as her funeral  showed various family members leading the choir; playing the organ; piano and singing. And anytime you saw her, she had beauty, and her hair was groomed as perfect as those others she made beautiful. Her husband has already passed away, and he did so without glory and fanfare, and little do most folk know that soft spoken Don Gowers was a ferrous fighter during World War II, being a member of the new and elite "US Navy Seals" who believed "The Only Easy Day Was Yesterday".
