 Ruby
Liljenquist Raybould 1912
~ 2004 Ruby
Liljenquist Raybould, 92,
beloved mother,
grandmother, and
great-grandmother, passed
away August 15, 2004, at
Utah Valley Regional
Medical Center from
complications of a fall.
She was born April
18, 1912, in Hyrum, Utah,
to Otto Erastus
Liljenquist and Ivy May
Allen, the fifth of nine
children. She grew up in
Idaho and also spent many
happy summers back in
Hyrum with her extended
family. A diligent worker
all her life, she
graduated in 1930 as
valedictorian in the
first class to have
junior and senior years
added for the diploma
from Madison High School
in Rexburg, Idaho. She
worked several years to
help support the family
financially until her
marriage to Verd W.
Raybould on November 12,
1936, in the Logan LDS
Temple. The couple lived
in Idaho Falls, Salt Lake
City, Dillon (Montana),
Sugar City (Idaho), and
Rexburg. Her husband was
trained as a watchmaker
and eventually became
owner of D & R
Jewelers in Rexburg. Ruby
assisted him in that
business and took it over
when he died in 1968.
After selling it in 1973,
she stayed on as clerk
and then manager for the
new owner. Following the
Teton Dam Flood in 1976,
she moved to Provo where
she resided until her
death. Ruby was an active
member of The Church of
Jesus Christ of
Latter-day Saints and
loved her service in the
past as a Primary
teacher, choir member,
and Relief Society
visiting teacher. She
served seven years in the
Provo Temple. She was
known as a wonderful
homemaker and cook, and
she especially enjoyed
bringing family together
for special occasions.
She enjoyed trips to
Europe, Hawaii, and the
Caribbean and was always
grateful for the people
and places in her life.
Those who knew Ruby would
recall her as a caring
friend and that she
always presented herself
in an attractive manner.
Ruby is survived by two
daughters, Janeil (W.
Rolfe) Kerr of Provo and
Kareen (Kenneth A.)
Winder of Roosevelt, Utah
and one son, Clayne V.
Raybould of Provo; 10
grandchildren and 15
great-grandchildren; one
sister, Beatrice L. Hall
of Rigby, Idaho, and two
brothers, Vern J.
Liljenquist of Rexburg,
Idaho, and Dean A.
Liljenquist of Sandy, and
many nieces and nephews
across four generations.
Three brothers, two
sisters, and a stillborn
son preceded her in
death. Funeral services
