Heather also attended the College of Eastern Utah and Utah State University where she received her Bachelor’s Degree in Special Education and Psychology where she was in the top of her class. She was presently employed with the Emery County School District in Cleveland as a Special Education Teacher. Heather touched and influenced the lives of every student she came in contact with. She was a kind hearted, loving and soft spoken educator who never said a harsh word towards anyone.
Family was everything to Heather, and she encouraged her children to chase their dreams no matter what. Heather had a great love for all sports and she enjoyed watching and playing with her kids.
