Alicia Tait Obituary

Alicia Ann Tait

Cedar City, Utah

Alicia Ann Tait, age 46, returned peacefully to her Father in Heaven on November 10, 2014. Alicia was born November 16, 1967 in Cedar City, Utah to Bernard Al and Rhena Tait the third of five children and the only daughter. She graduated from Cedar High School and later served a mission to West Virginia and Salt Lake City.

Alicia had a big heart and enjoyed visiting. She loved musicals, birthday parties, holidays, and parades. She especially loved her nieces and nephews. Alicia loved to serve and had many church callings in her life, most recently serving in the library. She provided great care and service to her mother prior to Rhena's passing.

Alicia is survived by her father and brothers, Eric (Jennifer) and David (Angie), five nephews and six nieces and one great nephew. She was preceded in death by her grandparents, her mother, brothers Rhett and Michael, and a niece, Brooklyn.

The family wishes to thank the many wonderful members of the Cedar Eighth Ward who assisted Alicia once she was unable to travel to church and other places on her own. We also wish to thank the staff of Alliance Hospice.

Services will be held on Saturday, November 15 at 11:00 am at the Cedar Stake Center (155 East 400 South). Viewings will be held on Friday, November 14 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm and Saturday, November 15 from 9:00 to 10:30 am. Both viewings will be held at the Cedar Stake Center.

Burial will be in the Mt. Carmel Cemetery under the direction of Mosdell Mortuary.
