Mary Goring Obituary
She grew up in Tremonton, Utah, attended local schools, and graduated from Bear River High School. She attended Southern Utah University in Cedar City, Utah, and received a degree in education, with a minor in Spanish.
She worked in Phoenix, Arizona, for a time, and then went on an LDS mission to Argentina. Upon returning, she studied graphic design at the University of Utah, and then worked at several advertising agencies in Salt Lake and for the LDS Church.
In 2008, Mary moved to Deweyville to be near her family. In 2021 she moved to senior housing in Logan. After a serious fall and broken leg in August 2024, she moved to Rocky Mountain Care Center in Logan, where she passed away.
Mary was an artistic, creative person. She enjoyed knitting, crocheting, and piecing quilts. She was a gifted musician who wrote music and played the piano. Mary was always willing to help others and was a support to her nieces and nephews in their various activities. She enjoyed participating in theatrical productions, and had many treasured friends.
She was a devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in various positions.
She is survived by her brother, Jr. (Sherie) Goring; sister, Kathy Bessinger, and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents, William F. and Margie Goring, and sisters, Maxine and Josephine Goring, and brother-in-law, Bob Bessinger.
