Neva Roundy Cardon Hawkes, 75, devoted and loving wife, mother and grandmother, passed away Thursday, January 21, 1993, in Bountiful, Utah of natural causes.
She was born May 5, 1917 in Benson Ward, Utah to Hyrum Michael and Esther Isabelle Roundy Cardon. She was a member of the LDS Church. She married Lorin Jones Hawkes in the Logan LDS Temple on March 26, 1942. Neva graduated from Utah State University. She served an LDS mission with her husband in the Montreal Canada French speaking Mission from 1981-83. She loved to read, was an accomplished seamstress, an excellent cook and most of all, loved spending time with her family. The “Mother Memories” and accomplishments closest to our hearts are the small gentle ones that we have carried with us from the days of childhood. Her example of service and unselfishness, her loving inspiration, intuition and patience will be her legacy for generations to come. Now undivided with her eternal companion, they shall be more than memories…they are a living presence.
