Bio
Doris Elaine Freestone Nielsen 1938 - 2022 ❦ Early Life: Doris was born October 28, 1938, in Vernal, Utah, to Emery Lind and Ida Vilate Crouse Freestone. She has four brothers and two sisters. ❦ Life's Work | Service | Interests: Doris was one of the most selfless servants of the Lord and was definitely an angel walking among us. Everything she did was to serve others and took nothing for herself. Coming from very humble beginnings, she knew the definition of hard work. From a young age growing up on a farm, being a cashier, a seamstress, managing and running gas stations, finding a love for gardening, and finally, finished out her career at Kmart managing the Garden Center. She had such a great love for the gospel and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She held many different callings and loved each one. As she aged and slowed down in life, she found a new love—indexing. Every waking minute she had free time, you would find her on her computer indexing. She faithfully did that for over six years and was hooked. She loved every minute of it! Her family meant the world to her. She lived for every single one of them, down to the great grandchildren. She was the first that would want to take you somewhere or babysit. She loved adventure as much as the next person but she had to do it surrounded by family. Doris Elaine Freestone Nielsen passed away early Thursday morning, April 21, 2022, surrounded by loved ones. She was 83. ❦ Family Message: "...the family reunion probably has been nothing short of amazing. We will all miss her and her feisty personality so much!" ❦ Survived By: Her daughter, Shelley (Kelly, deceased) Leftwich; son, Darren (Stefani) Nielsen; grandchildren: Michael (Brittney) Dillenbeck, Brandon (Hannah) Schelin, Christian (Skylee) Nielsen, Devyn Nielsen, Ashley Nielsen; great grandchildren: Sequoia, Ryder, Kaysen, Axeton, and Nikayla Dillenbeck; many aunts, uncles, cousins, nephews and nieces. ❦ Predeceased By: Her parent; her brothers, Melvin, Harold, Ernest, and Dallas; her sisters, Dorothy and Lois; and her son-in-law, Kelly Leftwich. ❦ Obituary: © 2022 | Walker Sanderson Funeral Home ❦ Graveside & Burial: East Lawn Memorial Hills Cemetery Bio compiled by: Annie Duckett Hundley
