Eve Gwinn

1934 ~ 2007

Eve Gwinn peacefully slipped away in the early morning hours of Thursday, Nov. 1, 2007.She was born in Salt Lake City on March 15th 1934, along with her twin brother Alan, to Clyde and Florence Miller. Eve was an original Jordan High Beetdigger, class of '52 and proceeded to earn a BA from BYU in child and family therapy. Eve was proud to have also been offered a counseling fellowship in Ann Arbor, MI at The Merrill-Palmer School as she worked towards her master's degree. She married Albert L. Gwinn and they raised four children together before their divorce.

Some of Eve's great loves were books, new recipes, and people. She had an insatiable hunger for knowledge and especially enjoyed working with children and learning about other cultures. Eve was a devoted and lifelong member of the LDS Church with a deep love for the Lord. She patiently trusted that one day she would be free of the physical and psychological challenges that her body and mind presented.

Preceded in death by her dearly loved parents, infant sister Faith, and youngest son Garth. Survived by her other three children, Aubyn, Todd and Kobi; siblings, Alan (Chadra), Karl (Peggy), Mark (Linda) and Janice; granddaughters Sara and Taylor, and many nieces, nephews and their families. Thank you so much for your visits, photos, and phone calls over the years. They were the highlight of Eve's day. Also, special acknowledgements to the Hillside Rehabilitation staff who assisted and befriended Eve.

A viewing will be held Thurs., Nov. 8th from 5-7 p.m. at the Union Fort 7th Ward at 6770 S. 500 E., Midvale. Services will be held at the same chapel on Fri., Nov. 9th at 11 a.m. with a viewing one hour prior. Interment, Salt Lake City Cemetery. Share condolences with the family at www.serenicare.com
