Our "Sweet" Celestial Marriage in the St. George Temple August 26,1978


This most wonderful day in my life I reverence and think about every day of my life here on earth. I am sooo grateful for my Noble Sweetheart Curtis and our Eternal Marriage in the St. George Temple August 26, 1978. I love Curtis and all our children with all my heart and try to live my life each day so that we can all be together forever.
Curtis took me to a bench surrounded by beautiful roses on the Temple grounds, took my hand and told me that he wanted to marry the person he loved in this exalted Temple for Time and All Eternity. This year was our 30th Wedding Anniversary which is truly hard to believe. We had 7 Precious Sons that we love with all our hearts and their endearing families.
I just loved my wedding dress as it was made by my Mother Zelda that she wore on her wedding day when she was married to my Noble Father Ross Eagar who had polio. They too were married for Time and All Eternity in the St. George Temple.

My Sweetheart's Heart Surgery


On March 10th 2009 my "Sweetheart" Curtis had surgery on his heart at the Dixie Regional Medical center. Dr. Jentzer performed an Ablation on the middle of his heart which was truly a miracle as the surgery was done through his groin and neck. Curtis's heart started racing 4-5 years ago, he would just rest and self heal himself until one day his heart wouldn't stop racing. That was a very bad day as his heart raced at 188 beats per minute for 14 hours. In order to get his heart to beat in rhythm again his heart was stopped completely in the emergency which for me was the hardest experience I have ever endured. The Ablation was given to fix the electrical problem in his heart and in June when we see Dr. Jentzer again we will know if his heart is healed completely. This was a very hard experience for our family and especially me. The surgery went well but Curtis had an allergic reaction to the anesthesia which made his body go into a death migraine. I had to take him back to the emergency and even the Demerol didn't work that was given to him in the emergency room. Bishop Peterson gave Curtis a blessing both before the surgery and after returning from the emergency and he blessed him that he would get better, that I would be given the strength to help him and that he would be blessed in the business. He asked me if I felt that Curtis was going to get better and I said I didn't know and was having a very hard time. The Bishop said: "Believe, he is going to get better." My "Sweetheart" is now getting better every day and I know it is because of the Blessings of the Priesthood. This experience was a great teacher as I know that Heavenly Father heard our prayers and blessed us with more time on this earth. Every day and moment is precious and we must love, forgive and appreciate each other because we never know when our journey is finished here on earth.

Hawaii the most Beautiful place on earth.



This "sweet" precious picture was taken in Maui 2005 at a Lulau on New Year's eve. The back drop is the real ocean in Hawaii.
I love Hawaii with all my heart and dream about going there everyday. When I was l8 years old I went to BYU in Provo on a full ride music scholarship. For the fall semester I went to school in Hawaii on the College campus in Oahu. Living on the island was an experience of a life-time. I went to school with 30 different nationalities and grew to love all people.
My dream of going back to Hawaii finally became a reality 30 years later when my Sweetheart and family all went there for one week. We left the island at 10:oo at night and I felt like part of my heart was left behind as we left paradise. I love the feeling of unconditional love, the smell of a perfume bottle from the beautiful flowers, the rolling waves of the warm ocean; it's almost as if time stays still. I love Hawaii and look forward to going back again soon.

I love Hawaii so much that these little hula dolls on the "Small World" ride at Disney World was my favorite thing ever.
