Shanna Jenson Obituary (1932 - 2017)

Shanna Dean Beck Jenson left her home here on Earth on January 12, 2017 to be with her husband Jack, her two sons, Robert and Michael who she missed dearly, and her Heavenly Father. Shanna was born June 30, 1932 to Iris Berry Beck and Harold Beck in Salt Lake City. She married John H. Jenson in 1950 and had five children in the next twelve years. Mom spent every summer of her married life on the mountain with her family on the Jenson Sawmill. She enjoyed sitting on the porch with her kids and her many grandkids watching the birds. She made many friends working at First Security Bank and the Lin’s Grocery Store bakery. Her two favorite past times were gardening and watching the Jazz. She also loved attending live orchestra concerts with her great-grandchild, Gabii, and her dear friend, Shirley. She will be missed by her three best friends, Christy, Shirley and Gaye. She loved the days her grandchild, Eli, would do her nails, or when Maddie and Gabii would come play Mexican trains and card games with her. Her great-grandsons, Maddox, Jackoby, and Auston, will miss playing trucks with their grandma in her backyard. Shanna was a devoted member of the LDS Church and enjoyed her visits to the Temple. Shanna is survived by three of her children: Dianne (Albert deceased) Butters, Mark (Kim) Jenson, and Gail (Scott) Bishop; 9 grandchildren; 17 great-grandchildren; and 1 great, great-grandchild due in February. She was also survived by her sister, Marie Frampton and brother Jim Beck. She is preceded in death by her husband, two sons, both her parents, and her brother and sister, Burt Beck and Peggy Kosel Graveside services will be held on Wednesday, January 18, 2017 at 1:00 pm in the Cedar City Cemetery, Cedar City, Utah under the direction of Southern Utah Mortuary.
