University, Book 10, page 384. ~ ~ ~ ~ HER OBITUARY: Ferron, Utah - Loie Rebecca Miner Beach returned to her Heavenly Father July 11, 2002. She was born October 25, 1901 in Fairview, Sanpete County, Utah to Melvin Orson Miner and Mary Elnora Young Miner. In 1929 she came to Ferron, Utah to teach school. It was then she met her eternal companion, sweetheart and friend, Francis Lyman Beach. They were married in the Salt Lake LDS Temple June 29, 1931. They had a happy peaceful life together for 51 years. Loie had a long and fruitful life and she was blessed with many gifts and talents. After graduating from Brigham Young University she taught school for 30 years touching the lives of many students who still remember her and are as grateful for her influence as she was for their continued friendship. Loie loved music and enjoyed playing the piano -- especially hymns. In her later years she so much appreciated those who came and sang and played for her. She had a gift for writing and composed much beautiful poetry, also many tributes, presentations and lessons. These have brought joy to the lives of many. As a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints she accepted many callings, both executive and teaching positions which she fulfilled to the best of her ability. The call she loved most was the time she spent as an ordinance worker in the Manti Temple with her beloved husband. Service to God and her fellowman was her creed and she truly lived by it. She gave unselfishly of herself, her time and her means to all. Loie is missed by all who knew her. She leaves a legacy of strength from her example and her endurance. She was survived by her daughter and son-in-law, Marilyn and Lamont Arnold; six grandsons; 22 great-grandchildren; one great great-grandson; one brother, Dean (Blanche) Miner, Vineyard, Utah; sister-in-law, Ethelyn Miner, St. George, Utah. She was preceded in death by her husband, parents, two sisters, one brother and one great-grandson. Funeral services were held in the Ferron 5th Ward Chapel, 555 So. 400 W, Ferron, Utah, on Tuesday, July 16, 2002. Her interment, Ferron City Cemetery. [Deseret News, Sunday, July 14, 2002.]

Her interment, Provo City Cemetery, Utah. ~ ~ ~ ~ PART OF HER SISTER'S OBITUARY: Caroline Scorup Polly, 1908 ~ 2005. A dear and gracious lady has passed from among us into a better world. On February 15, 2005, Caroline Scorup Polly died at age 96 of causes incident to old age. She was born on April 4, 1908 in Salina, Utah, her father's hometown. He had taken the family to Salina from their home in Bluff, Utah, so that this sixth child could be delivered by a doctor. But on the day Caroline was born, the doctor was out of town. And so, her father John Albert Scorup, a rancher who had delivered many a calf, delivered her himself with instructions from his wife, Emma Theodora Bayles, who was a midwife, as well as a schoolteacher. Caroline [BYH Class of 1916] was the youngest of six sisters, Edna Scorup Larsen [BYH Class of 1916], Veda Bayles Scorup Nelson Williams [BYH Class of 1919], Anna LaVerde Scorup Gurney [BYH Class of 1921], Juliette Scorup Ward, and Pearl Alberta Scorup Fairbourn, all of whom died before she did. Growing up to the age of nine in Bluff, Caroline saw there the last mustering of the U.S. Cavalry from Denver for an expected Indian uprising which never happened. Her family moved to Provo so that all six sisters could graduate from BYU. Caroline chose to major in Dietetics and Business. While at BYU she met her sweetheart Orville Louis Polly, who became her chemistry lab instructor and husband. They married during the Great Depression on August 29, 1934 in the Salt Lake Temple and rode the bus for their honeymoon to Baltimore, Maryland, where Orville completed his Ph.D. Fortunately finding a job in the oil industry in Southern California, they settled in Long Beach, where they raised their family, Karen Elizabeth, Julie Ann and Kenneth Edward. Caroline and Orville made many wonderful friends and were active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. For many years Caroline was the secretary-treasurer of the Relief Society women's organization of the church during the bazaar era. She also taught Primary, Mutual, Sunday School and was a faithful visiting teacher as long as she was able. When Orville died in 1971, Caroline followed through alone on their retirement plans to move back to Provo. The people of her neighborhood and Edgemont 8th, now the 11th Ward, have been cherished friends. [Deseret News, Friday, February 18, 2005.]
