After a long and full life, Velma Thail Ottley Dastrup was released from her sojourn on

15, 1926 to Herbert John and Velma Curtis Ottley, the youngest of three children. She 
was raised in Aurora, Utah and graduated from North Sevier High School in Salina.

Thail married her high school sweetheart, Ross B Dastrup, in the Salt Lake Temple on

children: Carolyn (Dennis) Sampson, Neal (Brenda), Max (Claudia), Dan (Teresa), 
Janice Goltz and Jeffrey (Lauren). She has a growing posterity of 34 grandchildren 
and 53 great grandchildren. In every way, she fulfilled her calling as a wonderful wife, 
mother, grandmother and friend. She was preceded in death by her husband, parents, 
and her sister, Phyllis Boren. She is survived by all of her children and her brother, 
Quentin Ottley.

Thail was a member of the LDS Church and served faithfully in many capacities
