Eva LaVerne Bond, beloved wife and loving mother and grandmother, 87, passed away on October 30, 2013 at home after a short illness.
She was born June 7, 1926 in Mt. Pleasant, Utah, to Jess Shelley and Phoebe Crystal Terry. She was the third of their six children. She married Jack Bond on May 28, 1949 in Elko, Nevada. They were sealed on April 3, 1998 in the Jordan River Temple. He passed away in 2004 and she missed him every day.
LaVerne was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where she served in many capacities. She loved people! She was a friend to all and her warmth, and cookies, made her a favorite of many. She enjoyed entertaining and was a wonderful cook.
She is survived by her siblings June Morris, Elwin Shelley, Clair Shelley and Virginia Lundberg. She is remembered by her four children: Pamela Nelson (Steven), Stephen J. Bond (Jane), Marilee Gomez (Timothy), Karilyn Taylor (Chris). Her eight grandchildren whom she loved dearly: S. Geoff Nelson, J. Tyler Nelson (Anne-Marie Hildebrandt), Stephanie N. Bond, Jared T.
