About 1990, Maughan, Wakefield and Winegar formed the foundation in an effort to obtain, restore and preserve Stevenson's estate, Vailima, then owned by the Samoan government, and once used as the official residence of Samoa's head of state. Stevenson is well-known throughout the English-speaking world as the author of the adventure novels "Treasure Island," "The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde," and "Kidnapped." All three men, Maughan, Wakefield and Winegar are returned LDS missionaries who once served in Samoa, and who have repeatedly returned to assist the country. Maughan is well-known for his company, Forever Living Products, which has grown to become the third largest network marketing company, behind the giant Avon Products. In 1997 Maughan was listed among the Forbes 400 richest Americans, and his firm is still listed by Forbes as one of the 500 largest private companies. News reports indicate that all three provided assistance during hurricanes that hit Samoa in 1990 and 1991. They were also among a group of returned missionaries who helped BYU professor Paul A. Cox preserve 30,000 acres of rain forest near the village of Falealupo, on the Samoan island of Savai'i. For their efforts, the village Elders honored Maughan, Wakefield and Cox with high chief names. The government had on August 29, 1990, accepted the foundation's proposal to "restore and preserve the RLS Estate at Vailima." Preservationists call the restoration, completed in 1994, a success, and the estate is now home to the National Museum of Western Samoa and is one of the premier tourist destinations in the country.

Fairview, Utah — On July 7, 2022, Mary Lynn Wakefield Patten passed from this life to the next. She was born August 14, 1935, in Ogden, Utah. She grew up in the shadow of Timpanogos, attended Brigham Young High School, graduating in the Class of 1953. She then attended BYU, from which she graduated with a degree in Home Economics Education. After BYU, she studied at Upper Montclair Teacher's College in New Jersey, and taught Home Economics in Rupert, Idaho. Mary Lynn married Emery Phillips Patten in 1960. They lived all over, and every place they went was made better by Mary Lynn's generosity and poise. She made dinners seem to appear magically, for family, for unexpected guests, for gatherings of 200 people, and just as wondrously brought up vegetables and flowers, in California and Michigan, and even in the scorching sun of Saudi Arabia where she lived for many years. And, oh, could she make stuff. Jam and pies, sure, but hard-candy lollipops, too. People who tasted her cinnamon rolls have dreams about them. She sewed and quilted and embroidered and crocheted, knitted and tatted, and made things in ways we don't have words for, bequeathing to her children a love for textiles that made her cheeks rosy. In the many places she lived, Mary Lynn served in every capacity, from stake Relief Society president to primary teacher. She and Emery served a Spanish-speaking LDS mission in NYC. For years, she served as a Manti Temple worker. Mary Lynn was curious about people, a good friend, an adoring oldest sister, mother, aunt, cousin, "lollipop lady". She saw and appreciated each person she met around the world and delighted in their uniqueness. In passing, Mary Lynn joined Emery, also her parents Thomas Lynn and Helen Wakefield, and her niece Julie Wakefield Morrison. She leaves her brother Dan Wakefield and sisters Emma Susann Wakefield and Helen Devey. So too, her five children, Paralee King, Dow Wakefield Patten, Lynell Lemon, Celia Mason, and Martha Weatherred. Mary Lynn leaves four sons-in-law, eleven grandchildren, and four great grandchildren. Services will be 11 am Saturday, July 16, 2022 at the Fairview 3rd Ward Chapel, rock church, 131 E 100 N, Fairview, Utah. Viewing from 9:30 am to 10:30 am. Interment, Fairview City Cemetery.
