Molly Shupe

Molly Grace Shupe

November 23, 2010  ~  May 21, 2016

Molly Grace Shupe was called home on May 21, 2016, following a 3-year dance with childhood leukemia. She fought hard, and put on such a brave face one would hardly know she was suffering.

Molly’s life seemed so short, and yet the quality of her existence far exceeds the quantity of days she had on this earth. She was quick to love and made fast friends with any who made the slightest effort to show her kindness. She lived for routine and was diligent in making sure the rules were followed and promises were kept. She had an expert imagination, with dreams that could rival the best. She often surprised us with how clear and precise her memory was.

She is survived by her daddy, James; mommy, Leisel; big sister, Annie; little brother, Jack; and her grandparents, many aunts and uncles, and a cousin. She was preceded in death by her paternal great-grandparents, James Lennis and Drue Wilson Chambers of Trenton, Utah; great-aunt, Alice Susan Olcott of Mesquite, Nevada; maternal great-grandfather, Earl Henry Moser of Willcox, Arizona; great-uncle, Craig Dwayne Timothy of Phoenix, Arizona; maternal great-grandmother, Helen Ann ”Nana” Lewis of Pocatello, Idaho; and first cousin once-removed, Mia Catherine McClellan of Nampa, Idaho.

We believe that families are forever. Molly is welcomed home by her loved ones in the next place, and will be reunited with her earthly family in the future.

Friends may visit with family on Thursday, May 26, 2016 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Lindquist’s Ogden Mortuary, 3408 Washington Blvd. A small intimate graveside service for immediate family will be held the next morning.

A celebration of Molly’s life will be held on November 19, 2016, with details to follow at mollyscancerblog.blogspot.com and facebook.com/mollysurvivesthrives.
