Allowee Briggs Obituary
Allowee and Jack were married in Manila, Utah in 1940 and later sealed in the LDS Temple in Salt Lake City, Utah. They ranched in McKinnon, Wyoming before moving to Dell, Montana in 1949 to establish a cattle ranch with Jack's father, his three brothers, and their families.
In 1979, the couple retired to Polson, Montana and started a legacy of raising and canning cherries. Allowee was a talented ceramics painter who shared her finished projects with friends and family and taught classes to many people over the years. She loved her popcorn, Diet Coke, and peanut M&Ms.
Allowee served in many capacities in the Lima Branch of the LDS Church, including Relief Society President. Allowee was a member of the Community Concert Committee in both Dillon and Polson that brought cultural and musical experiences to all residents. Jack and Allowee started to enjoy their winters in Saint George, Utah in 1998. In St. George, Allowee delighted in her service in the LDS Temple.
Allowee and Jack celebrated their 77th wedding anniversary in 2017. Allowee enjoyed 11 grandchildren, and many great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren.
