Jan Greenwell:
I am the 2nd of 4 children and was
born and raised in West Weber. Some of
my husband Joes’ family (Grandparents, some aunts, uncles and cousins lived in
West Weber. I grew up in the same ward
with them.) Our son-in-law Brian
Staples is from West Weber. (I’ve known
his Grandma Jean and his mother Carla my whole life.) Small World!!! After we were married we lived in West Weber
for 2 1/2 years then bought our 1st house in North Ogden and lived
there for 4 years (the house where the Morris family now live.) My mother was born and raised in North Ogden
and loved it here. It didn’t take us
long to see why. We then moved over one
street and lived and raised our 2 children there for 22 years. It’s been just about 14 years since Staci and
Brian Staples bought that house and we built across the street. Yes that makes about 40 years and 3 houses in
North Ogden and we haven’t even moved a full block. We love the area, the gorgeous view of the
mountains and the down to earth terrific neighbors we have. I’ve always said this is a” low maintenance”
ward. There are no “attitudes” or “keep
up with the Jones” here. I feel so
thankful to have been a stay at home mom and raise our children- Staci and
Brett- here. And now 3 out of 4
grandchildren live across the street and we can see them as often as we
want. Staci and Brian’s children are
Kennedy 10, Oaklan 4 and Rigley 7 months.
Brett and Amber’s daughter Tessa Joe is 9 months and they live in the
Washington Terrace. At this stage of
our lives we have the freedom and health to enjoy traveling, going to car shows
and spending time with fantastic friends.
We feel so very blessed.
