Elvera M. Santos Abbott Sargent, 84, spread her wings and flew from this life to the next on February 12, 2012. She was born on March 12, 1927 to MARY DIAZ and ANTONE SANTOS JR.
She married Dwight "Bud" Abbott and had five children. After his passing she married Sydney Sargent. Together they raised, loved, and cherished their family including, Michael, Deceased, (Karen) Abbott, of Grand Junction, CO; Susan (Gary) Mason, Garden Grove, CA; Thom (Penny) Abbott, Salem, UT; Mary (Duane) Holm, Spanish Fork, UT; Patti (Robert) Griffin, Vernal, UT; David, Deceased, (Steffanie) Sargent, of Sacramento, CA. She also leaves behind 19 grandchildren, 51 great grandchildren, and one great great grandchild.
"Vera", as her friends called her, was a sweet, loving, mother, grandmother. Like all mothers and grandmothers, she was proud of her children and loved to tell you about their accomplishments. Her greatest joy was to watch them dance, play ball, ride horses, and whatever they called her to come see.
She was a proud fan of the U of U softball team, (Mainly #3), and wore the "Ute" banner often. "Go Utes", Huh, Mom, Ha Ha! She enjoyed her time spent at the Senior Center with the friends she loved so dearly.

Mom- You have always been the rock on which our foundation was anchored, teaching us to stand on our own and to be the best that we could be. You raised us with love and passion for life. You are the heart and soul in all of us. Thank you for never judging and always loving, never questioning but always praising, no closed doors and only open arms. Thank you for giving us a safe and happy home where you were always there to listen to our hopes, dreams and fears. You have helped us in good times and bad, have been through happy and sad. Now that your wings are free to fly, remember to visit often or at least tap our shoulder, as you always said you would, Ha Ha! " Always a feather, always a penny, always a breeze, always remember to use your knees, for God never takes what He can't give back. He just sends you in ways we have to look and listen for." Give Mike and Dad a kiss for us! We Love and Miss you! Go Utes
