Born October 15, 1906 in Richfield, Utah, third of four daughters born into the loving home of Niels and Katie Bell Levi Jensen. Her childhood was rich because of the wonderful relationship shared with her parents and her three dear sisters. She was raised in Beaver, Utah, where she graduated from high school.
