Class of 1950. Marilyn Norton. Wildcat Yearbook Editor, Thespians, Chorus, Soph Class Social Chair, Fauvines, Ski Club, Shorthand Club, Type Team, Graduation Committee. Married Thales Albert Haskell. Her twin sister, Marion Norton, is also a member of the Class of 1950. ~ ~ ~ ~ HER OBITUARY: Marilyn Norton Haskell (March 13, 1932 - June 8, 2018) Marilyn Norton Haskell, 86, returned to her heavenly home on June 8, 2018, after a battle with cancer. She was born along with her twin sister Marion on March 12, 1932, in Magrath, Alberta, Canada to the late Thomas and Flora Norton. The Norton family farmed outside of Magrath before moving to Vancouver, British Columbia, and then later settled in the United States in Provo, Utah. Marilyn graduated high school from Brigham Young High in the Class of 1950, then continued her education at Brigham Young University. It was there that she met and married her best friend, Thales Albert Haskell, on May 13, 1954, in the Salt Lake LDS temple. After being married, Thales and Marilyn spent nine months living in Los Angeles, California while Thales attended mortuary school. The two then resided in Lovell, Wyoming for the remainder of her life, working hand in hand running Haskell Furniture Company. Marilyn’s decorating ideas and attention to detail can be seen through many homes in the Big Horn Basin. Marilyn was community-minded and always looking for a way to make things better. She would see a need, share her vision and plans, coordinate efforts and see those plans come to action. That was never more evident than her involvement in the many improvement projects seen throughout the town of Lovell. Marilyn is survived by her husband Thales; daughter Valerie (Tracy) Beal; sons Brad (Tracey), Bart (Tawnya) and Mike (Stacy); brother Al Norton; sister Jayne Norton; 12 grandchildren; and 4 great-grandchildren.

Class of 1950. Dallin H. Oaks. Senior Class President. Member of the 1949 BYH basketball team. Football, Track, Lettermen Club, Band, French Club, Newspaper, Graduation Committee. Elder Dallin H. Oaks has served as a member of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints since May 1984. He is a native of Provo, Utah, born August 12, 1932. He began working for pay only three or four years after his father died in 1940, to help his widowed mother. The death of Dr. Lloyd Oaks of tuberculosis left his young widow Stella with three children: Dallin, eight at the time, and the oldest; Merrill, now a Provo, Utah, ophthalmologist; and Evelyn, now Mrs. H. Ross Hammond, of Salt Lake City. “I was blessed with an extraordinary mother,” Elder Oaks recalls. “She surely was one of the many noble women who have lived in the latter days.” Before her death in 1980, Stella Oaks was known as a force for good in Provo, in both Church and civic service. “She gave me a great deal of responsibility and freedom. She encouraged me to have a job,” Elder Oaks explains. From the time he first worked for pay, “at eleven or twelve,” he has been continuously employed. His first job was sweeping out a radio repair shop. He had to learn to test the radio tubes he found on the floor, to find out which were good, and that led to an interest in radio. He threw himself into study with characteristic intensity. Before he was sixteen, he had obtained a first-class radiotelephone license, which allowed him to operate a commercial radio station transmitter, and found a job in radio. Station managers liked to hire a “combination man” -- an engineer who could double as an announcer. Before long he was working regularly as an announcer. It was while he was announcing high school basketball games as a college freshman that his wife first met him. June Dixon was still attending high school in nearby Spanish Fork when someone introduced her to him at a game. They were married on 24 June 1952, while both were attending BYU. It was the height of the Korean War, and he was in the Utah National Guard, expecting his unit to be called to active duty at any time. But while other, closely related units went, his was never activated. At that time, a limited number of young men were being called on missions because of the war, and Oaks was not among them. He and his wife June were married in the Salt Lake Temple. They are the parents of six children, twenty-four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. She died July 21, 1998. On August 25, 2000 he married Kristen M. McMain in the Salt Lake Temple. Elder Oaks is a graduate of Brigham Young High School (1949), Brigham Young University (accounting, 1954), and The University of Chicago Law School (1957). As a young lawyer, he served for a year as a law clerk to Chief Justice Earl Warren of the United States Supreme Court. He practiced law for three years with a large law firm in Chicago and taught law for ten years as a professor at The University of Chicago Law School. He was also executive director of the American Bar Foundation, a large professional research organization, for the last year of his residence in Chicago. Dallin H. Oaks served as president of Brigham Young University from 1971 to 1980, and a justice of the Utah Supreme Court from 1980 until his resignation in 1984 to accept his calling to the apostleship. His prior Church callings have included service for eight and a half years as a member of a stake presidency in Chicago and six and a half years as a Regional Representative in Utah. He has been an officer or member of the board of many business, educational, and charitable organizations, including five years as chairman of the Board of Directors of the Public Broadcasting Service (PBS) and eight years as chairman of the Board of Directors of the Polynesian Cultural Center. He is the author or co-author of ten books and over one hundred articles on religious and legal subjects. Alternate address: 1813 Yale Avenue, Salt Lake City, Utah 84108 ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS MOTHER: Stella Harris Oaks was born in Provo on July 27, 1906, and died in Salt Lake City on Jan. 8, 1980. She served two terms on the Provo City Council and was acting mayor for a short time. She was often referred to as "Provo City's Mother." She founded the Family Life Conference at BYU and headed up the Provo School District Adult Education program for 24 years. She raised three children as a young widow, including Elder Dallin H. Oaks of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles of the LDS Church.

Class of 1950. Janet Oaks. Senior Class Secretary. Notre Maison, Quill & Scroll, Thespian, Y'ld Cat Staff. Married Rell G. Francis of Springville, Utah. They have three children: Sean, Lewis and Dana. ~ ~ ~ ~ HER OBITUARY: Janet Oaks Francis, 1932-2015. Fear no more the heat o’ the sun Nor the furious winter’s rages; Thou thy worldly task hast done, Home art gone, and ta’en thy wages. Following a long, courageous battle with a multitude of ailments, Janet Oaks Francis passed away on June 12, 2015, at the Holladay, Utah Health Care Center. She was 82. Born in Provo on October 9, 1932 to Dr. Lewis Weston Oaks and Jessie Nelson Oaks, Jan was the youngest of four. After a happy childhood, with summers at a cabin up the canyon and trips to the wilds of Vernal, Janet graduated from BYU High School in the Class of 1950. There she served as Senior Class Secretary, worked on the “Y’ld Cat” student paper, and was active in the French society “Notre Maison,” the Quill and Scroll literary club, and the school’s Thespian group. She then attended Brigham Young University, taking a degree in Elementary Education and focusing on English, French, and Children’s Literature. (In her career as a library cataloguer, she made this last field her special expertise.) Janet graduated in 1955 with a Bachelor of Arts — and having met a bachelor artist! This was Rell Gardner Francis, a painter, sculptor, and photographer from Lake Shore, Utah — whom she married on July 18, 1958, in the Logan LDS Temple. Three years later, now in Springville, Janet gave birth to Rell Sean; in 1963 came Lewis McKay and then a daughter, Dana, in 1968. Beginning in 1967, Janet worked part-time and then full-time as a card cataloger for BYU’s Harold B. Lee Library. She was admired and beloved there, happily ensconced in her carrel amid towers of books requiring her care. Upon retirement in 2001, ”JOF” was celebrated at a University event, with the late Welsh poet Leslie Norris, whose work and person she deeply loved, providing an eloquent appreciation. At home she cooked superbly and abundantly; laundered, gardened and helped with homework. She also supported her husband in his quixotic quests, enabling Rell to bring important creative and scholarly projects to fruition. She was perhaps happiest in her sewing room, making clothes or mending what needed mending. When not working with her hands and plying the Singer’s [sewing machine] pedal, she was reading. Few people since Gutenberg introduced moveable type can have read as much! Her favorites were mystery novels — and she spoke of writing her own one day. All who knew her wish she had; but then all who knew her have more than enough to remember her by. She also took special delight in travel; highlights included a post-college stay in Hawaii, and a post-retirement return to the islands. Her endless curiosity about and interest in life inspired. She could not not move — tap her foot, sway to the swing — when hearing great music. She laughed with infectious zest and gusto — especially when Carol Burnett was on TV! In her last decades Janet keenly enjoyed experiencing her children’s adult lives; and she loved communing with her five — a quincunx! — grandchildren. A faithful member of the LDS Church, she dedicated a good part of her life to service, making the rounds of her Springville neighborhood, bringing baked goods and kind words to the ailing and grieving. Empathizing, comforting. Janet Oaks Francis was preceded in death by a brother, Clinton Oaks, and two sisters: Carol Oaks and Joyce Oaks Bird. She also survived her husband — no mean feat! — who died in 2008. Janet lives on in the three beings whose great good fortune it was to have her as a mother: Rell Sean Francis, of Chicago, Illinois; Lewis McKay Francis, of Salt Lake City, Utah; and Dana Francis Lepore of Sandy, Utah. She will also shine on in the memories of her grandchildren: Madeline, Max, Sam and Amelia Lepore, the children of Dana and her husband Mike Lepore; and Nicholas Costello-Francis, son of Lewis and his wife Dana Costello. Requiescat in Pace, Mater. A viewing will be held Sunday, June 21, at the Wheeler Mortuary, 211 E. 200 S., Springville. Family are welcome from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m.; others from 6:00 to 8:00.

Condolences may be sent to www.wheelermortuaries.com [Provo Daily Herald, Saturday, June 20, 2015] ARTICLE: Preservationist's Springville Home Creates Feeling of Being in Early 20th Century Photo Gallery, Museum. By Mark Reece, DN Staff Writer. Do not call Rell and Janet Oaks Francis pack rats. Rell Francis is an Utah County educator, writer and artist-photographer, and he prefers the term preservationist. And the more than 10,000 glass negatives Francis has used to make prints from early Utah photographer George Edward Anderson attest to his earnest quest in keeping history alive in photos. Upon entering the Francis home in east Springville, visitors may wonder if they have stepped into the equivalent of an early 20th century photo gallery and museum. ``This is Rell's Relic Hall,'' Francis says. The basement could best be described as organized chaos, as hundreds of photographs adorn the walls, desks, tables and any available space that can be found. An enlarger sits in one corner and boxes of photography supplies are scattered elsewhere. Francis began aggressively pursuing the delicate art of restoring photographs in 1973 and is considered one of the best photo-historians around. Working with original glass negatives of varying sizes, Francis has restored - or touched-up, as he calls it - about 500 Anderson photos, and has done extensive research about the photographer and his work thanks to meticulous record keeping by Elfie Huntington, Anderson's assistant. Francis said he estimates Anderson may have photographed as many as 30,000 images, setting up studios in Springville and Manti, and as he traveled to England, Canada and parts of the western United States. The LDS Church has since cataloged a great deal of the Anderson work, using more modern methods than finding space for the large 14-inch by 17-inch glass negatives. As an art and English teacher for Nebo School District in Springville and Payson schools, Rell Francis taught from 1955 to 1977. He was also a temporary director for the Springville Museum of Art in 1976. Perhaps best known as an expert on the Anderson photography, Francis also has extensive expertise and research with Springville-native sculptor Cyrus E. Dallin who lived from 1861 to 1944. Among the Dallin works are the Angel Moroni for LDS temples, sculptures of Paul Revere, Lafayette, Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce and Chief Massasoite from the Wampanogas tribe who met early American colonizers in the 1600s. This past spring, Francis was a guest lecturer at the Rockwell Museum in Corning, N.Y., as the museum featured an exhibit of Dallin works in small bronze and plasters. Francis has also published what some have called the definitive biography on Dallin, entitled ``Cyrus E. Dallin: Let Justice Be Done,'' published by the Utah Bicentennial Commission in 1976. The Lake Shore native has won numerous awards, has had exhibits presented in Italy, Texas and throughout Utah and has published several books on the subject of photography and sculpture. [Published in the Deseret News, Wednesday, August 16, 1995.] Janet's sister, Joyce Oaks, also graduated from BYH in 1946. ~ ~ ~ ~ HER HUSBAND'S OBITUARY: Rell Gardner Francis was born in Lake Shore, UT on January 27, 1928 to Samuel Evan and Barbara Ferguson Francis. He married Janet Oaks July 18, 1958 in Salt Lake City. He completed a BA degree from Brigham Young University in 1954, a MA degree in 1963 and ongoing post graduate work in San Miguel d'Allende, Mexico, Ohio State University, the University of Utah and Chicago School of Design. Rell's professional career began as an art and English teacher, which extended to instructing in photography in Paris as a teacher in the European Art Academy. He served as Director of the Springville Art Museum and Director of the City Spirit for the National Endowment for the Arts in Springville City. He was the proprietor of the antique photo reproduction shop in Provo (Heritage Prints) when he received and restored a large collection of glass plate negatives photographed by early Utah artist George Edward Anderson. He published a detailed, illustrated catalog of this collection. His publication: The Utah Photographs of George Edward Anderson prompted a burgeoning industry of old photo reproductions based on the carefully developed processing he employed. Based on copious research on Cyrus E. Dallin, he wrote an earmark publication on Utah's forgotten sculptor, thus beginning an avalanche of renewed interest and scholarship on Dallin's life and work. Prompted by his detailed research of Cyrus Dallin, his watch cry became "Let justice be done" and his own artistic focus shifted to environmental and political activism. Rell served as a trustee of the Springville Museum of Art (1958-1974), a trustee of the Springville Historical Society (1975-1999) and received numerous photography awards both in and outside of Utah. He died at his residence December 9, 2008. He was preceded in death by his parents, a brother and a sister. He is survived by four sisters: Lila Madsen, Marian Tenney, Maurine Malmberg, Carol Loveless and four brothers: Reed, Rulon, Evan and Samuel. He is also survived by his wife and their three children: Rell Sean, Lewis McKay (Dana Costello), Dana Lepore (Mike) and four grandchildren. Funeral services were held on Tuesday, December 16, 2008 in the Springville Stake Center, 245 S 600 E, Springville, Utah. Interment, Provo City Cemetery.
