George Jeremiah HATCH

                   0Funeral Services were held at Berg Mortuary, Orem, Utah Friday,
November 15,
1996.  Interment St. George Cemetery, 700 East Tabernacle Street,
St. George,
Utah.  Cleola was orphaned as a child by the death of both parents
at a
railroad crossing in Arizona.  She lived with sisters, graduating
from Phoenix High School, and was introduced to Andrew, her husband
to be.  She was married and subsequently sealed in the Arizona
Temple.  President Harry Payne, the temple president, reportedly
scolded her for having only one child.  As a result, Sandra was
born, and other sisters followed.  She and "Andy" retired to
Hurricane, Utah, and then moved to Morgan Hill, CA.  Her husband
died in 1979, and she soon moved to Utah to be in apartments in
Provo and Centerville, Utah on her own. When her health began to
fail, kindly daughter Annene and husband Michael Hogge made room for
her in their home.  Unfounded reports of mistreatment of Mother,
accusers unknown, prompted Annene to give up her excellent care of
Cleola, who came under the care of Julia and Richard Hirsch, Orem,
Utah, where she remained until her death.  While she became
forgetful of family and friends the last year or so, Mother is best
remembered for her unswerving faith in the Lord and her attention to
the Gospel, which she taught her daughters and all.  So far as is
known, all temple ordinances have been performed and are recorded.
