Rasmussen spent his childhood on a farm in Millard County, Utah. Although his childhood education was interrupted periodically by the need for his presence on his father's farm, he nevertheless obtained a high school diploma from Brigham Young High School at age twenty-one. After teaching school for a short time, he attended the University of Utah where his involvement in theater began. While at the University, Rasmussen frequently appeared in the Varsity Plays and worked under the direction of Maud May Babcock. But despite his activities in drama while a student, his involvement in theater throughout the rest of his life was sporadic. Rasmussen alternated between teaching, farming, and acting. He taught in such schools as the University of Utah, Box Elder High school, and Millard High School. His later years were spent in Fillmore where he taught for several years, eventually returning to farming. His involvement in theater at this time was primarily that of working with productions of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Fillmore, where he wrote and directed many plays. Rasmussen's professional career in theater began upon graduation form the University when he was hired as stage manager and actor at the Social Hall Theater in Salt Lake City. Combined with his teaching activities at the University, Rasmussen remained at the Social Hall from 1919 to 1920, at which time he became a founding member of the Moroni Olson Players. He toured with the troupe and left it periodically for other theater activities, spending time with such groups as the Ellison-White Chautaugua Company in Australia and New Zealand, and the Swarthmore Chautaugua in the East. After his association with the Moroni Olson Players, Rasmussen worked with such groups as the Weber College Little Theater, in Ogden, Utah (1927), and in California, the Major School of Acting at the Figueroa Playhouse (1929), The Pasadena Community Playhouse (1936), and the Hollywood British School of the Theater (1938). Rasmussen served in a number of capacities for these organizations: as actor, director, dramatic director, and manager. In addition to stage work, he had the opportunity to appear in three motion pictures: he played Beckstrom, a spy chief, in "The Marines Come Thru" in 1938; he played a clerk in "The Toast of New York" in 1937, and he played Detective Tucker in "They Won't Forget" in 1937. After completing a two-year mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in North Carolina, Rasmussen returned to Fillmore in 1943 where he remained to teach and farm. Rasmussen died on August 8, 1975. ~ ~ ~ ~ Play: The Ghost's Skull, a mystery romance in 3 acts, by Frank Rasmussen, copyright April 22, 1929. ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS FATHER'S OBITUARY: Hans Rasmussen, Pioneer Passes To His Rest At Age of 97. Hans Rasmussen, pioneer, and the oldest person in Fillmore before his death, died here Monday, December 19th. He was born in Denmark, May 22, 1835. Brother Rasmussen joined the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Denmark in his early twenties. He left his native land in his 27th year and came by sailing ship across the Atlantic to New York. From there he traveled by train to Omaha, where he joined the Mormon Ox Team Train, and crossed the plains that weary 1,000 miles, arriving in Fillmore the summer of 1862. The spring of 1863, Brother Rasmussen was "Called" to drive an ox team back across the plains to return by the same trail late that summer. He crossed the plains three times by ox team. A few years after his arrival in Utah, he was married to Hannah Sorenson, and later assisted financially in bringing her father and family to Utah from Denmark. Hannah bore him two children, "but crossed the bar" in her early life. A while after her death, Mr. Rasmussen married her sister, Sena, who was the mother of eight children. Brother Rasmussen was known as a thrifty, liberal, and kindly man, being friends to all in the community whether they were church members or non-members. He was always faithful in his church duties and grateful that the gospel brought him to America. He was able to attend church and, in fact, to live by himself until he was past ninety. He was of a very independent disposition, working about his house and lot long after the age when most people would have been under someone's care. He is survived by three daughters and two sons: Mrs. Joseph Hatton, Mrs. Ella Alexander, Mrs. Florence Walton, William Rasmussen and Frank Rasmussen. Funeral services were held in the First Ward Chapel, Thursday, Dec. 22, at noon, and interment was in the city cemetery. The speakers at the services were Grover A. Giles and Peter L. Brunson. Mr. Giles also sang a solo, "I'm A Pilgrim," and other musical numbers were furnished by the choir. Mr. Frank Rasmussen came home as soon as he heard of his father's death, but the two daughters, Mrs. Alexander of Los Angeles and Mrs. Walton of Salt Lake were unable to attend.

[Provo Daily Herald, March 27, 2011.] ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS OBITUARY: Lloyd Evan Rasmussen, 88, passed away peacefully at the home of his son Garth Rasmussen in Henderson, Nevada on March 23, 2011. He was born on March 21, 1923 in Fairview, Utah to Wilford Woodruff Rasmussen and Matilda Winkelmann Rasmussen. After spending his childhood years in Fairview, his family moved to Provo, Utah. He attended Brigham Young High School where he was an outstanding athlete in football, basketball, and baseball, graduating in the Class of 1941. In fact, it was at a BY High vs. Provo High rivalry game where he met his future wife, Nadine Farr. Lloyd was playing basketball for BY High and Nadine was a cheerleader for Provo High. Lloyd was dribbling down the sideline when Nadine accidentally tripped him. As they both tell it, that's where he first fell for her, and they've been in love ever since. They married in the Salt Lake LDS Temple on September 23 1943. He served in the Army and was stationed overseas during World War II. He graduated from LDS Business College in Salt Lake City and then worked as an accountant for the U.S. Steel Geneva Plant until his retirement. Always active in the LDS Church, he has served in a variety of positions including being a counselor in two bishoprics. During many years as a scoutmaster and a baseball coach, he was a positive influence in the lives of many young men. Lloyd and his wife Nadine served in the London England South Mission and have also served as temple workers in the Provo LDS Temple. Lloyd and Nadine have four children: Susan Green, Santa Fe, New Mexico; Meridee Williams and husband Lind, Provo, Utah; Garth L. Rasmussen and wife Kathy, Henderson, Nevada; and Shaun F. Rasmussen and wife Susan, Eldorado Hills, California. They have 18 grandchildren and 27 great-grandchildren. Lloyd is preceded in death by his parents and all of his siblings: Harold, Merlin, Elden, and Leah. He is survived by his wife Nadine. Perhaps his most lasting legacy is his complete selflessness and tender regard for all that knew him. One could not visit their home without Lloyd inviting them to eat, and one could not eat without Lloyd coaxing them to eat more. Neighbors, family, friends, and strangers all benefited from his sharing attitude. He took a personal interest in, and was a friend, to everyone he met. He loved BYU sports, and he loved to fish, boat, hike, and camp. When camping, he took the time to get to know every stranger he met, and he could tell you the name, hometown, and a personal story about everyone in the campground within a couple of hours after setting up camp. His children, grandchildren, and great grand-children will forever remember his tender heart, the smile on his face, and the tears of gratitude in his eyes. Funeral services will be held on Friday, April 1 at 11:00 a.m. at the Bonneville 4th Ward Chapel, 1285 East 300 South, in Provo. Family and friends may call on Thursday evening, March 31 at the Berg Mortuary, 185 East Center Street in Provo or at a viewing at the church one hour prior to the funeral services. Interment will be in the Provo City Cemetery following the services.

For the three and a half years prior to this she had been living under the loving care of her son and daughter-in-law Garth and Kathy Rasmussen in Henderson, Nevada. Nadine was born on November 20, 1923 in Tucson, Arizona to Heber Erastus Farr and Hilda Bluth Farr. She was second-youngest of the twenty-three children of Heber Farr. She had ten brothers and sisters, and, in addition, twelve half-brothers and sisters from Hebers first wife Elizabeth. Of her numerous siblings, she is survived by only two sisters: Yvonne Farr Morgan and Azona Farr Lloyd. She was preceded in death by her parents and her siblings: Halvan, Maybelle, Deral, Winnifred, Josephine, Keith, Ivan, and Lawrence. From Tucson her family moved to Pleasant Grove, Utah and then later to Provo where Nadine lived most of her life. It was at Provo High School as a cheerleader that she met her husband-to-be, Lloyd Rasmussen. As the family story goes, Lloyd, a basketball star for the rival B.Y. High Wildcats, was dribbling near the sideline where Nadine, the P.H.S cheerleader stepped inbounds and accidentally tripped him. As they both tell the story, thats where Lloyd first fell for her, and they were in love ever since. They married in the Salt Lake L.D.S. Temple on September 23, 1943, and after Lloyds military service, they made their home in Provo, living among many of the same neighborhood friends for over 60 years. Lloyd and Nadine are the parents of four children: Susan Green, Santa Fe, New Mexico; Meridee Williams and husband Lind, Provo, Utah; Garth L. Rasmussen and wife Kathy, San Jose, California; and Shaun F. Rasmussen and wife Susan, Eldorado Hills, California. They have 18 grandchildren and 35 great-grandchildren. She was a skilled cook, seamstress, and homemaker. Always caring and capable, she could make curtains for her home or rescue a wedding dress mishap at the last minute. She loved family get-togethers, and reunions. She was an organizer and ensured that gatherings with Farr and Rasmussen cousins and aunts and uncles were happy and memorable. Her home was always the fun place to be at Christmas, Thanksgiving, and the Fourth of July, not only for her children and grandchildren, but usually with many other invitees included as part of the family. Her holiday traditions will be passed on for generations, although her delicious potato salad recipe will never be replicated and will go with her into the next world. What a great Farr Family Reunion that will be. Her life demonstrated that memories and traditions are built from love and togetherness. She was a wonderful mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother. She lived a beautiful life. Always active and involved in the LDS church, Nadine faithfully fulfilled numerous ward and stake leadership callings. She and her husband Lloyd served in the London England South Mission and have served as Temple Workers in the Provo LDS Temple. Nadine led an exemplary life, full of kindness, generosity, and service to her family, her neighbors, and her church. She had a knack for making everyone her friend and making friends feel like family. Her family would like to thank the tender kindness and concern provided by the Compassion Care Hospice in Henderson, Nevada and the Maple Creek Hospice in Utah Valley.

The creaking sound of the floors; the smell of the basketball gym in the elementary building; the friendly and accommodating faculty and their constant concern for our well being. All of the above, with the specific memory of "cleaning the Fieldhouse floor" with the Provo High basketball team in the state tournament. It was all great! @2005 ~ ~ ~ ~ Moved from Tustin, California to Farmington, Utah. @2012

Thomas Laine Raty, beloved son, husband, father, brother, uncle, grandfather, and cousin passed away November 28, 2021 in Payson, Utah at Mountain View Hospital from heart and dysphasia pneumonia complications. Born February 5, 1927 in Ogden, Weber, Utah to Charles Leslie Raty and Berniece Shupe Raty, Laine was the second of four brothers. He attended Ogden Utah schools, served in the Navy during World War II and later reserves, earned his undergraduate and Master's degrees at Brigham Young University, and a doctorate from Arizona State University. An inspirational artist, he created many sketches, scenic watercolors, portraitures in a variety of media--especially oil. He created unique pottery and excelled in calligraphy. He was a fashion illustrator and illustrated cover art for the Children's Friend magazine. His professional works won awards, but he reminded all that "art is not a horse race where only one finishes first." Laine was sealed for time and eternity to his high school sweetheart Jennie Clavell Brown on February 13, 1948 in the Salt Lake City Temple. He was an exemplary husband who loved his wife and respected her influence. They celebrated their 71st anniversary in 2019 before Clavell passed. Laine and Clavell loved their two sons and three daughters. As a father, Laine helped his children be better parents and was proud of their careers. Fishing with his brother Larry was also required. Laine loved his extended family. Laine enjoyed sharing his talent as a teacher beginning in Burley Idaho, then Ogden City schools. Next he became an art teacher and publications advisor at Brigham Young High School from 1963 to 1966. He completed his teaching career at BYU in the Art and Design Department. Many of his students thanked him for advice and overcame discouragement and challenges to continue their degrees. Some chose an art career because of his influence. As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he exemplified deep commitment and service to others. He freely gave his talents and time illustrating many ward bulletins, posters, class handouts, and decorations for many church activities. His favorite callings included serving in the Burley Idaho bishopric and later with Bishop A. Dean Jeffs. He extended his short genealogy mission call beyond seven years, starting in the BYU genealogy center with his older brother Leslie Shupe Raty. His beautiful calligraphy graced numberless "Hearts of the Children" certificates for Primary children successfully completing tours at the BYU library. He helped many older adults transition to computers for their family records. He also enjoyed "lunch bunch" neighborhood friends. Laine is preceded in death by his parents; wife Jennie Clavell Raty; son Dallas Laine Raty; daughter Lorna Raty Brown; granddaughter Adrian Foutin; many Raty and Shupe aunts and uncle; brothers Leslie Shupe Raty, Lawrence K. Raty and David Ralph Raty. He is survived by Janet Raty, Brenda Beth Miller (Dennis), son William "Bill" Charles Raty,15 grandchildren, many great-grandchildren, and two great-great grandchildren.
