Owen A. Labrum
The Idaho Statesman | Edition Date: August 31, 2004
Owen A. Labrum died Friday, Aug. 27, 2004 at his home with his family around him. Funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Wednesday, Sept. 1, 2004 at the Boise West Stake Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, located at 3700 S. Maple Grove Rd. Bishop Kim Sanford will officiate. Friends may call to visit with the family on Wednesday from 10:00 until 10:45 a.m. at the church. Interment will follow the service at Terrace Lawn Cemetery. Services are under the direction of Relyea Funeral Chapel. Owen was born Feb. 20, 1915 in Cedarview, Utah to Alva Leo Labrum and Neta Rosette Brown. He married Mildred Evelyn Paulsen on June 16, 1939 in the Manti, Utah Temple. Coming of age during the Great Depression, Owen drove an eight mule dry farm rod weeder, stomped the concrete of Grand Coulee Dam, hammered the star bit to construct irrigation tunnels, turned gypsum into plaster and placed refrigeration in the ships of World War II. He mastered the skill of the journeyman electrician, the controls of an airplane, the cultivation of a garden and the care of fruit trees. His avid pursuit of hunting was second to his love of fishing. A gentle heart and a strong and fervent testimony of the Savior were gifts shared as Owen and Evelyn traveled the world during their 65 years of marriage. All 50 states, Canada, the Yukon, the Arctic, all the countries of Central and South America, Europe, Scandinavia, and Russia were adventures that honed their testimonies of the divine nature of man. A lifelong member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Owen and Evelyn served full time missions to Australia and Venezuela. They gave copies of their beloved Book of Mormon to all they met in their travels. Case after case of Books of Mormon and a boundless zest for life marked their journey. Their mission continues. Owen was preceded in death by his wife Evelyn. Owen is survived by his daughter Rita (Stacy) Rogers of Vacaville, Calif., nine grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren, and five great-great-grandchildren.
