Tamara Jo “Tami” Workman Ferguson peacefully passed away, Friday, February 20, 2026, at the age of 73 in her home surrounded by her family, who love and admire her in every way.

Tami was born on May 13, 1952, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Wane and Jo Ann Ward Workman. As the oldest of four children, she grew up with one younger brother and two younger sisters. She was raised in Roosevelt, where she developed the roots and relationships that shaped her life. Tami married her sweetheart, Dennis Ferguson, on March 13, 1971, and their marriage was later solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple on July 18, 1998. Together they welcomed two boys and two girls. They spent the first eight years of their marriage in Sandy, Utah, before returning home to Roosevelt.

Tami dedicated her life to sharing her gifts and talents, lifting others, and cultivating/creating a beautiful, loving home for her family and serving those around her. Her primary anchor was to our Savior Jesus Christ and becoming more like him was her goal. Motherhood was her most cherished calling. Additionally, she served in multiple callings for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, including Stake and Ward Relief Society President, Ward Young Women's and Primary President, Stake and Ward Girls' Camp Director, Gospel Doctrine Teacher, Family History Worker, Temple Ordinance Worker, and Missionary. Her absolute love was serving those on the other side of the veil, doing Family History Work.

Tami also found deep purpose in serving through the LDS Addiction Recovery Program, the Thompson House, and the Interfaith Group. She served quietly and was continually striving to “lift up the hands which hang down, and strengthen the feeble knees,” blessing countless lives along the way.

Her artistic soul thrived and loved to create in the garden, kitchen, sewing, and at home. She reinvented herself many times throughout her life - first as a secretary, then working in the high school with the teenagers she loved and later owning and operating a floral and wedding business. In her 50s, she returned to school and launched a home drafting business. For two decades, she enjoyed drafting homes and living spaces. Her talent was recognized until the very end, with requests for her work continuing until she was overcome by health issues.

Tami is survived by her husband of 54 years, Dennis; her children, Dennis (Karla) Ferguson, Dana (Jay) Juergens, Sean (Emily) Ferguson, and Farah (Tyler) Prawitt; her sister, Sue (Lance) Denver, and her stepmother, Jackie Workman. Tami & Dennis have 23 grandchildren and 3 great-grandchildren with two additional great-grandchildren on the way.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her brother, Wade Workman; her sister, Cheri Workman; and her daughter-in-law, Brittany Ferguson.

She spent her final days expressing her love to her husband, children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren and bearing her testimony of her Savior to all. Her greatest passion and love is her family. They are her most cherished blessings.

We are grateful to all who visited and supported Tami and family during the last few months of her life.

Her unwavering faith was summed up in two of her favorite sayings: "I know who holds the future - I know that my Redeemer lives".

Funeral services will be held on Friday, February 27, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at the Roosevelt West Stake Center. There will be a viewing on Thursday from 6-8 p.m. at the Hullinger Mortuary and on Friday from 10-10:45 a.m. at the church.

Burial will be in the Roosevelt Memorial Park.

Leon Nielsen

Leon LeGrande Nielsen, age 69, of Roosevelt, passed away February 17, 2026, at his home after a courageous battle with ALS.

He was born December 30, 1956, in Roosevelt, Utah, to O. LaMar and Olive Young Nielsen. As a young man, he faithfully served a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the New Zealand Auckland Mission. He served with willingness and diligence, giving his whole heart to the people and the work, and that same spirit of dedication remained with him throughout his life. He married Lisa Nelson on June 19, 1980, in the Salt Lake Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

Leon was a tireless worker. Over the years, he worked at Nielsen’s Furniture, Roosevelt Distribution, and Murray Motors before owning and operating Prairie Dog Services, a chemical toilet rental company he built and ran with pride. He cared deeply about the quality of his work and whatever he put his hands to he left better than he found it. Whether on the job, at home, in the yard, or helping someone in need, he believed in doing things the right way and seeing them through.

Leon loved horses and felt most at home outdoors. He spent countless hours in the mountains, hunting, fishing, camping, and horseback riding, embracing both the hard work and the quiet moments that came with that way of life. He enjoyed rodeos, especially roping, and on occasion even riding a bull, never backing down from a challenge.

Leon was truly a jack-of-all-trades. He could wire a house, finish a basement, upholster a couch, sew, make saddle bags, and fix just about anything that needed fixing. He had a gift for turning any moment into a good time. His laughter was contagious, and he always had a game going, whether it was kickball in the yard, a competitive card game around the table, or something entirely made up, often with his own creative twists that kept everyone on their toes.

An avid Scouter, Leon served in Scouting and worked with the youth in his ward for more than 30 years. He led countless boys on memorable pack trips into the mountains and invested deeply in the lives of the young people he served. While things didn’t always go exactly as planned, every boy came home safely, even if it wasn’t always certain until the final day.

Leon’s greatest joy was his family. He loved his children and grandchildren deeply and cherished every opportunity to spend time with them. He will be greatly missed and fondly remembered for his selfless service, steady strength, and joyful spirit.

Leon is survived by his wife of 45 years, Lisa, of Roosevelt; his children: Mike (Kristen) Nielsen of Roosevelt; Katie (Tyson) Frandsen of Springville; Derek (Sally) Nielsen of Vernal; and Colton (Jordyn) Nielsen of Roosevelt; 13 grandchildren; his siblings, Larry (Shelly) Nielsen and RaNae (Byron) Grant, both of Roosevelt; and numerous nieces and nephews.

He was preceded in death by his parents and his two brothers, Floyd and Keith.

Funeral services will be held Tuesday, February 25, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at the Roosevelt West Stake Center. A viewing will be held Monday from 6:00–8:00 p.m. at Hullinger Mortuary and again Tuesday from 9:30–10:45 a.m. at the church.

Following the service, he will be cremated.

Ralph was born on April 12, 1926, in Vernal, Utah, to Leonard and Jennie Postma Slaugh. He was the third of six children.

Ralph’s early years were spent in Vernal surrounded by a large family. His family then moved to Mack, Colorado, when he was 9. He graduated from Fruta High School in May of 1944. A week later he reported to boot camp at Farragut, Idaho, and spent the next two years honorably serving our country aboard the U.S.S Goshen in the World War II effort. He felt it was an honor and a privilege to serve his country and always said he’d do it again in a heartbeat. He was the last surviving member of all the sailors assigned to his ship.

Upon his return to civilian life, he enrolled in Mesa State College, earning an associate degree in Music and Spanish.

They completed the family with Jennie, Beth, and Susan. Dorothy passed away in 2017. He then married Laverne Johnson, and she passed away in 2025.

Ralph worked many different jobs in his life: coal miner, oil rig work, lab technician, and custodian. But his favorite was being a husband, father, and papa to his large posterity.

Ralph was a musician, poet, storyteller, and teller of jokes. He had a gift of memorization and could recall and recite poetry and scripture perfectly.

Ralph had a deep, unwavering testimony of our Savior Jesus Christ. He loved the scriptures. He and Dorothy served in the Detroit Michigan Mission and he was an ordinance working in the Vernal Utah Temple for 19 years.

Ralph is survived by his children, Nila (Steve) Wagner, Eagle, ID; Charlie (Chris) Waller, Florence, MT; Vauna Slaugh, Clifton, CO; Julie (David) Hansen, Salt Lake City, UT; Marianne Pack, Neola, UT; David (Michelle) Pack, Gold Canyon, AZ; Jennie (Brent) Benson, Roosevelt, UT; Beth (Kathy) Slaugh, Panguich, UT; Susan (Doug) Betts, Neola; daughter-in-law, Cathy Slaugh, Milikan, CO; 34 grandchildren, 79 great-grandchildren, and 14 great-great-grandchildren.

He was preceded in death by his parents, five siblings, son, Delbert Slaugh; son-in-law, Chris Denver; and granddaughters, Jessie Noland and Calli Waller.
