Jeannette Gordon

On Friday, February 10, 2017 Jeannette  Madson Gordon, 56 years of age, passed away after gracefully and without complaint living with M.S. for many years.

She was born April 5, 1960 in Payson to Raydon and Iris Madson.  She was the third of eleven children and married Russell Gordon January 19, 1985.  They had three children, Jamie, Lindsey, and Kelli.  And, she was a stepmother to Tonya and Nick.

Jeannette is survived by her five children, six grandchildren, mother and ten siblings.  Her dad preceded her in death by just two weeks to the hour.  He was there to greet her as she crossed the veil.

Jeannette Graduated from Payson High School and then Snow College.  She went on to go to “The Tech” as she called it and they recommended her for employment at the American Fork Training School where she worked until her illness made it so she could no longer work.

She was devoted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and magnified every calling she had and loved when her visiting and home teachers came.

Funeral Services will be held Wednesday, February 15, at the LDS Church at 681 East 500 North at 11:00 a.m.  There will be a viewing before the funeral from 10:00 to 10:45 a.m. at the same location.

Interment will be at the Payson City Cemetery.
