Maureen Totland

I love Maureen. She befriended me when I first moved into her ward and was a kind, enthusiastic, faithful delight.

Maureen is the real deal, having met Maureen over 35 years ago when I became best friends with her son Doug. Maureen was always authentic, genuine and kind, Personally I never saw her upset. I loved how she was the same person no matter where she was. A true disciple of Christ always, a truly fun loving individual, and yes I remember her tearing up the dance floor on disco night on a Cruise in her mid seventies. She knew where she stood with God and she cherished her membership in the Church...

This news, came as a shock to my very soul. Pondering the years that have flown by without constant contact with Maureen, saddens me to the core. My absolute favorite life experience EVER ... includes Maureen by my side on a chapel pew over 30 years ago. I love this devoted disciple of Jesus Christ - and exemplar on the doctrine of "happiness" (beyond mortal comparison), with all my heart!

She was like second mom to me. She was always happy and always tried to make my time in her home enjoyable. She made the best chocolate chip cookies I´ve ever eaten. All my love to her wonderful family.

I was so shocked to read that Maureen had passed away. I knew it would come because of her medical problems, but I was hoping it wouldn't be this soon. I loved her as a dear cousin and friend, especially as she and I would share family information and write back and forth. She gave me some wonderful compliments that boosted my morale so many times. I will miss her love and caring personality. I know that all of you will have such wonderful memories of her and that will help all of you...
