Our beloved "Nana" Iva Jean Watts returned to her Heavenly Father on Sunday September 6th, 2009 after a long painful battle with Parkinson's Disease, Alzheimer's and frequent strokes.
Nana was born on February 4th 1930 to August & Amelia Danklef in Sandy Utah.
Her life was filled with many struggles and hard times yet she never complained,she did everything she possibly could to make the best out of every situation she faced. Nana was a strong, independent & stubborn woman. Her strength will forever live on in her Grandchildren & Great Grandchildren.
She is survived by her 3 Grandchildren Natalie Walker (Jim), Michelle Neves (Dre), Kylon Neves (Erin) her 9 Great Grandchildren Darrien, Anthony, Connor, Patrick, CJ, Arianna, Aubreyann, Lasyia & Dre Shawn. Her loving niece Connie and nephew Val.
She is proceeded in death by her parents August & Amelia Danklef, her sister Florine Danklef, brother Ed Danklef and her daughter La Ronda Neves.
Nana spent the last 7 years of her life residing at Art City Nursing in Springville. We wish to thank the staff for being so good to our Nana. Words cannot express our gratitude for your love, care and compassion.
We would also like to thank Sunbrook Hospice for the comfort and peace they gave to Nana during her last days.
