KAYSVILLE - She was a beautiful, charming, caring and gracious person who personified achieving the American dream, beginning her career an a high school teacher and ending it as Chairman of the Board of one of the Intermountain area's most successful companies, Clover Club Foods, a company she and her husband, Hod, built together. Clover J. Sanders died Friday, December 24, 1999, at the age of 96. She was born in 1903 in Price, Utah, to Charles Robert Johnson and Deseret Aldridge Johnson. After living in Price and Huntington, the family moved to Provo in 1908, where her father received his Music Diploma in the BYH Class of 1909 and taught music at what was then Brigham Young Academy [actually it was Brigham Young High School -- Brigham Young Academy ceased to exist in 1903]. Because of his association with the school, Clover was allowed to attend and began her education at the age of 5 at the BYA kindergarten [BYU Laboratory Elementary School]. In 1916, the family moved to Logan and Clover graduated from Logan High School. At the age of 16, she enrolled at Utah State Agricultural College (now Utah State University) where she majored in music, drama and physical education. In 1923, she was the first student - male or female- to graduate in Utah State's physical education program. She taught at Morgan High School, and it was there that she renewed a friendship with a man she had met at Utah State, Newell V. "Hod" Sanders. The couple was married on May 28, 1928. After working at various jobs In New York and California, the couple decided they wanted to have their own business; so in 1938, armed with little more than enthusiasm, Hod and Clover moved back to Hod's home town of Kaysville with one simple desire to work for themselves. Taking their life savings, experiences learned while working at other snack food companies, and with a few pieces of second-hand equipment, they rented a "back room" in a vacant warehouse in Kaysville, and Clover Club Potato Chips was born. It was Clover's job to do the cooking. Hod delivered the chips door-to-door and store-to-store hoping to sell enough to be able to buy the potatoes they needed for the next day's batch. When a shortage of money became critical, Clover sold her prize piano to keep the fledgling company going. From this humble beginning, Clover Club grew into a major snack food company with distribution in 11 Western states. Clover credits the success on hard work, determination, and always providing a quality product. Hod died in 1980 and Clover assumed the responsibilities of Chairman of the Board, a position she maintained until 1983, when the company was acquired by Borden, Inc. Over the years, Clover has been active in many civic and church activities, including the development of the LeConte Stewart Art Gallery in Kaysville. She was one of the first two women to serve on the Davis County Health Board. And in 1989, at the age of 87, she worked to create a community center for the older citizens of Kaysville. She in survived by two sons, Robert V. (Gail), Salt Lake City; John N. (Sheryl), Bozeman, Montana; seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by a son, Barr; two brothers, Reed and Lund; and a sister, Dixie. Graveside services were held Wednesday, December 29, 1999 in Kaysville. She was truly a remarkable woman, and she believed that (in her own words) "Life is what happens when you're planning something else." The family suggests donations to the Kaysville Autumn Glow Senior Citizens Center, 81 E., Center, Kaysville, Utah, 84037. [Published in the Deseret News, Sunday, December 26, 1999.]

Class of 1956. Claudia Johnson. Girls State, Interpretive Speech Region, Children's Theater, Pep Club, Thespians, Chorus Accompanist, Junior Prom Committee. Married Donald Bendorf. She earned BYU BA Music 1960. ~ ~ ~ ~ After graduating from BY High, I moved on to BYU, where I completed a BA in music theory. In 1961, I married and had three children, two sons and a daughter. Seven years later, I became single again, until I met and married Don Bendorf in 1968. We have lived in and around Oroville, California for the last thirty-eight years, a place we truly love. Before Don retired, he was a probation officer for twenty-five years, later becoming Director of Family Court Services. I’ve had a variety of jobs, ranging from working in the BYU construction department to a myriad of office occupations: legal secretary, office manager, bookkeeper, and financial manager. Although I’ve always loved and been involved in music, it’s never been a paying job. Music has brought me constant joy, something money can’t buy. There hasn’t been a time when I haven’t had a music calling in church or been involved in community and church performances. Don and I have spent many, many hours, weeks, and years doing musical theater together (he sings), including directing full length musicals (I directed an orchestra!!). It has been great fun. Another source of joy has been teaching the Gospel. It all started thirty-five years ago with a Sunday school class of twelve and thirteen year-olds, which I grew to adore. From there I taught Seminary for eight years with classes at 6 am, 7 am, and 3 pm. Class sizes ranged from ten to forty and then they finally got me some help. I started teaching an adult version of Seminary at the same time at the request of the Stake High Council and it is still going -- fifteen years later. It became an Institute Class and then a BYU Continuing Education class. Some of the most meaningful experiences of my life have stemmed from teaching in the Church. Life has been good and no matter how much of it is left, I have no fears of continuing on to our next existence. Five and a half years ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. I had surgery, chemo and radiation and everything appeared to be fine until four months ago when it was found to have metastasized to the bones of my lower back and liver. We're trying various treatments and hope for a remission. If it doesn't come, then that is the way Heavenly Father knows it should be. If I have learned one thing in life, I guess it is to trust Him that He knows much better than I what is best for me. @2006 ~ ~ ~ ~ HER OBITUARY: Claudia Johnson Bendorf passed away February 5, 2008 after a seven-year battle with cancer. She was born April 8, 1938 at the Holy Cross Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah, the second child of Owen Woodruff Johnson and Faun Bunnell Johnson. She was educated in Provo, Utah from grade school through college. She graduated from Brigham Young High School in 1956, then from Brigham Young University with high honors in 1960, with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Theory and a minor in Spanish. She was first married to Carroll Vance Christiansen on April 1, 1961. They had three children. They later divorced. In 1968, she married Donald Eric Bendorf , who had two children of his own. She worked as secretary, legal secretary, office manager, and bookkeeper. But the job she loved most was as a teacher for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints for over 35 years. Her leisure activities from age 12 on were connected in some way with music, usually in the capacity of accompanist for soloists, groups, and musicals. She was an accomplished pianist whose talent and ability were enjoyed by all who heard her play. She sang in choruses and small groups: mainly trios and quartets, which included about 12 years as a member of "The Sweet Adelines", where she met three of her closest friends. She also directed and co-directed numerous musicals with Don through the Birdcage Theater in Oroville, California. She had a great love for animals, especially cats. She will be missed and is survived by her older brother, Owen Wallace(Joyce) Johnson and family; younger sister, Linette (Chuck) Jarrell and family; three children, Kelly (Paula) Christiansen, Kareen (Jeffrey) Buckner, and Kevin (Barbara) Christiansen; two step-children, Michael Bendorf and Laura Johnson; ten grandchildren, Taylor, Karly, Danica, Timothy, Jarod, Kenneth, Christopher, Joseph, Kristopher, and Kelli; three great-grandchildren, Joseph, Anthony and Alanna.

Class of 1967. Curtis T. Johnson. Science Club, Band, Track, 4th Year Seminary, Transferred to BYH as a Senior. BYU BS Computer Science 1972. ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS OBITUARY: Curtis Thayne Johnson - September 24, 1949 – April 30, 2013. Curtis Thayne Johnson, 63, peacefully passed away at home on April 30, 2013 from multiple complications secondary to liver failure while waiting for an organ transplant. Curtis was born on September 24, 1949. He was the first born of five to Thayne and Iris Johnson. During his childhood the family resided in Southern California where he is remembered as being an adventurous and active child who craved the outdoors. Thayne and Iris loved taking the children on frequent outings in the family trailer. Curtis delighted in being airborne, side by side with his father in the cockpit. He always longed to be a pilot, but the need for vision correction thwarted him from achieving this dream. Curtis and his dad enjoyed the scenic byways everywhere they traveled. As a father, he never missed the dirt road less traveled that took us into the unknown, where some of the best memories were made. The family relocated to Utah in the early sixty's where Curtis found the mountains irresistible. He summited his first mountain (Mt. Whitney) as a young teenager and later volunteered on the Mountain Rescue team as part of the BYU Alpine Club. Curtis found great joy tinkering with electronics and achieved his amateur license as a Ham radio operator. He is remembered for attempting to make his own hang glider, loving anything to do with water, and for his amazing marksmanship. Curtis graduated from Brigham Young High School in the Class of 1967, and obtained his Bachelors in Computer Science from Brigham Young University. He enlisted in the United States Army and served for 2 years before his honorable discharge at the rank of SP5. His polished typing and English skills influenced the General to "keep Curtis around", and as a result he was spared from being deployed overseas. Curtis was sealed for time and all eternity to his high school sweetheart, Barbara Jean Babb, BYH Classes of 1968-69, in 1970 in the Salt Lake City LDS Temple. They raised their four children in Pepperell, Massachusetts until 1985, when they returned to Provo, Utah. Curtis was recruited after graduation by Digital Equipment Corporation and then later for Wang Laboratories and Novell. His sense of adventure then led him on an entrepreneurial journey with the startup company DISX. He was truly passionate about his final job as the manager of the American Fork LDS Employment Center where he enthusiastically coached a team of missionaries to help others find gainful employment. Curtis was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He was fondly nicknamed "sound guy", "Mr. Fix-it", "Papa Curt" or "BJ" by his ward family and friends. He eagerly accepted callings throughout his life, but his time spent serving the youth was always his favorite. He treasured his time spent with the Young Women at Camp Shalom and trekking with the Boy Scouts in the High Uintas. Curtis could be called by anyone, anytime, anywhere and he would be there to get the job done. We will never forget the countless hours he spent reading in his big Papa Curt chair and his never-ending quest for knowledge. He believed a spread sheet analysis should fix ANY problem. He had a deep love for music and enjoyed listening to his children and grandchildren practice and perform. We knew when the ward choir was scheduled to sing, because he would be giddy for days beforehand. We will miss the popcorn that he popped in his whirly pop nearly every day, the roar of the lawn mower at the start of every family gathering and the anticipation of snowfall as an excuse to fire up the 4-wheelers and attach the plow. He was our resident astrologist, librarian, weatherman, swim coach, "jump or dive" caller, water polo referee, dive judge, music critic and the best Santa's helper ever! Curtis is survived by his wife of 43 years, Barbara; his four children Michael (Wendy), Rebecca (David) Mullen, Matthew (Kristin), Megan (Bryan) Hepworth; his siblings Darla Rogers, Terri Lee (Jon) Burgener, Kevin (Elizabeth) and Brian. He will be greatly missed by his 13 grandchildren; McKenzie, Chase, KC, Cassidy, Alexis, Kiersten, Madilynn, David, Matisyn, Sammy, Emilyn, Abigail and Lucas. There are countless nieces, nephews, cousins, "adopted" children and grandchildren, and his best friend and ball of fluff, Kizzy, that will miss him dearly. He is preceded in death by his parents Harvey Thayne Johnson and Iris Helen Schlerf. Funeral services will be held Monday, May 6, 2013 at 11 am at the Provo Sharon East Stake Center, 2400 N. 1060 E. in Provo. Friends may visit with the family Sunday evening from 6-8 pm at Walker Sanderson Funeral Home, 646 E. 800 N. in Orem and at the church Monday morning from 9-10:45 a.m. Burial will be at East Lawn Memorial Cemetery Provo, Utah. - In memory of our husband, father, brother, grandpa, uncle, cousin, neighbor and friend, we encourage everyone to give the gift of life and become an organ donor.
