Janet Trowbridge
May 3, 1931 - July 4, 2021
Janet B. Trowbridge, born May 3, 1931, died July 4, 2021 of heart failure in Salt Lake City. She was born in Price, Utah, the daughter of Henry J. and Marie L. Beckel. She married Duaine E. Trowbridge on August 14, 1950 in Price. The marriage later was solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple. Four treasured children were born of this marriage, Susan, Barry, Alan, and Tamara; Susan and Alan survive their mother, and 10 delightful grandchildren survive as well. She is preceded in death by Barry and Tammy, as well as her beloved sweetheart, Duaine. Janet would like to be remembered as a person who loved intensely. She loved her family, children with whom she came in contact as a teacher, her friends, colleagues, her country, and music, all of which were food for her soul. She served in many capacities in the LDS church, in all organizations except the priesthood, she liked to joke. She had a deep, abiding faith in God and felt she had a warm relationship with her Elder Brother, Jesus Christ. She loved and admired her friends in Daughters of Utah Pioneers, and loved learning about early Utah. Janet enjoyed sewing, travel, crocheting, reading, tatting, writing, current events, drama, and the opportunity to impart her love of many things to the children she bore and taught. She loved to watch sunrises and sunsets, and saw the hand of God in the change of seasons, and in the quiet times fishing in the mountains with her husband and family. She reveled in the sight of clear blue skies, billowy clouds, lovely flowers, and shimmery waters of her native state. Janet wrote this obituary and would like those who read this to “stop and smell the flowers” in their lives – to relax and give themselves time to enjoy what their senses detect, and time to reflect upon the joyous events in their lives. There really isn’t much time to harbor hateful feelings or to feel regret. Please look to the good in others and in events, and resolve to do better every next time.
