Dear Workman Sisters
It was sad to hear of your fathers passing, I indeed loved your mother and father, they were always kind and friendly to me, back in 1965 when I first moved into the neighborhood, you and your parents invited me to your Halloween party, do you remember that? And I have appreciated your family ever since.
As the young men of the ward Arlo, Stephen, Neil, Rodney, and I grew up, your father and Gene Tidwell, always played basketball with us, at night, at the church...

Many great memories of the Workman family and great friends over the years. Our thoughts and prayers go to shelly, laurie, pam and val and their families at this time and the great comfort that he is with his sweetheart again that we all so loved. What a great couple and example they are to all of us.

We cherish each and every moment we spent with Dolan & Dixie and their girls and the entire Workman family. We have shared a lot of laughs and a lot or tears over the years. I have been blessed to be a sister to Dixie and a sister-in-law to Dolan. Being Aunt Carol to the four beautiful girls has been a very special experience. I love each of them and their husbands and children as if they were my own.

Dolan and Dixie where like the Ghost Busters. (Who are going to call!!) When...

God looked around his Garden and found an empty place.
He then looked down upon his earth and saw your loving face.

He put his arms around you and lifted you to rest.
His Garden must be beautiful, he always takes the best.
He knew that you were suffering, he knew you were in pain.
And knew that you would never get well on earth again.
He saw your path was difficult, he closed you tired eyes,
He whispered to you "Peace be Thine" and gave you wings to...

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Grief can be so hard during the holidays, but our special memories help us cope. Remembering you and your loved one this holiday season.

Dolan and Dixie were our dearest friends.
Our children grew up together. We have fond memories of trips we took together.
Dolan finished our basement in Salt Lake and was so good at what he did. We will miss him.

Dolan was one of the hardest workers I've ever known. Growing up with the Workman family, we spent many Christmases and other times at their house. The brick work he did was always an example to me of what one can do when one has a vision of the end result and works diligently at it. I enjoyed his sense of humor. He was a joy to be around. He's now reunited with his sweetheart. He lived a faithful and wonderful life. My prayers and thoughts go to the family at this difficult time.

I remember Dolan finishing mom and dads living room and kitchen. He was creative and meticulous in his work. His yard always showed his attention for detail. I remember sitting in the small pond Dolan built in the back yard with all of the cute neighborhood girls. A man without guile whom loved all will sorely be missed. A quiet loving giant is being reunited with the love of his life. Shelly, Pam, Lori, and Val, may you be blessed and comforted at this difficult time.
