Lorraine Rushton Marrott, age 83 of Pleasant Grove, Utah, went to be with her sweetheart on February 11, 2016.

Lorraine was born on November 28, 1932 in American Fork, Utah to H. Mayne and Vergie Shoell Rushton of Orem, Utah. Lorraine was the oldest of three daughters. 1951 was a very exciting year for Lorraine. She not only graduated from Pleasant Grove High School, but she met and married her sweetheart, Thomas W. Marrott, on September 23, 1951. They had seven children together. On May 23, 1970 they were sealed as a family for all time and eternity in the Manti temple.

Lorraine worked at the beacon café in Lindon for a number of years and then worked at the Cozy Corner café in Pleasant Grove until it closed down. She then worked for JC Penny's in Orem, in their restaurant, until they decided to close it also. Lorraine then went to work for Alpine School District helping with school lunch. She really enjoyed this job and the opportunity it gave her to be with all the children. She retired from there and was able to spend more time with her sweetheart Tom. Her loves were her family, friends, and taking long rides with dad. She also enjoyed being a part of the Daughters of the Utah Pioneers and being able to get together with her girlfriends that she grew up-with.
