Laura Olsen Livsey - Obituary

This lovely lady was one of the 85 widows that President Thomas S. Monsen cared for til she passed away.  She lived just across the street from his parents on eighth south and 2nd west, Salt Lake City Utah.  Her husband was a member of the U.S. Army Band.  He died while she was still raising their family.  She was one of the sweetest ladies I have ever known.  She became a substitute grandma for me when my own grandmother and her sister Trena Olsen Rodgers Bjelke passed away.  Their father and mother (Hans Peter and Anna Kirstena Madsen Olsen) along with the oldest children immigrated to Mt. Pleasant in the 1860s from Odense, Denmark.
