Patricia “Pat” J. Rasmusson

Beloved mother and grandmother, Patricia D.On Justesen Rasmusson, age 90, passed away peacefully May 31, 2018 in Cottonwood Heights, Utah, surrounded by her loving family.  Pat was born to Charles Vaughn and Carrie Otillia Justesen on September 22, 1927 in Spring City, Utah.
Roger James Rasmusson met Pat while both attended and graduated from Snow College and married in the Manti Temple on June 20, 1947.  Pat worked alongside and supported Roger as he ranched, taught school, and served as a school counselor.  Later, they owned and operated four motels, a restaurant, and a gas station.
Pat was a faithful member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in many callings during her life including 20 years as a St. George Temple ordinance worker, several years as a Cove Fort missionary, Relief Society teacher, ward dance director with Roger, Young Women President, and as an ever-faithful visiting teacher.
Some of her hobbies and accomplishments included bread making, crocheting, sewing, and perfecting her talent as a candy confectioner.  She was an avid Jazz fan, loved watching BYU Devotionals, studying the scriptures, traveling, and dancing.  She cheered and supported her family every day and in every way.
Pat and Roger raised seven children: Russell (Becky), Creta (Brian) Cheesman, Beven, Kevin (Janeen), Patrea (Nick) Faulkner, Bettina, and Ryan (Jennifer).  She enjoyed 13 grandchildren and 31 great grandchildren.  How she will be missed!
She is survived by her sister, Mary Joy Littke, and sister-in-law, Barbara Justesen and was preceded in death by her dear Roger, son Kevin, brother Mac Rae Justesen, and her parents.
