Alma Dorus Eakle

Box Elder County Dairyman, Alma Dorus Eakle, Jr. died December 7, 2004 of inoperable pancreatic cancer in Tremonton, Utah surrounded by his loving family. Because of the many prayers offered by his friends and loved ones, he died without the pain normally associated with this dreadful disease. Alma was born 30 May 1934, in Salt Lake City, Utah, son of Alma Dorus Eakle and Mary Alice Rodgers. He was a dedicated member of the LDS Church. He served a full time mission in the Central States--Oklahoma and Missouri; and served in the Mission Presidency of the Bountiful, Utah Stake. He served in many callings including two Bishoprics, Stake High Council, Elder's Quorum Presidency, Seventy's Quorum Presidency, and was High Priest Group Leader of the Tremonton Sixth Ward at the time of his death.
