Eva Gallup's Children
Jackie, Gaylon, Darlene, Larry, Cherie (my mother-in-law), Carolyn



Eva Viola Gallup, of Shelley, passed away Oct. 24, 2016.
She was born in Grant, Idaho, on Sept. 12, 1923, to Brandon and Ellan Clifford. She grew up and attended public schools in Shelley.
She married Fred Beck on June 30, 1941. He was very ill the four years of their marriage and passed away. Mom's constant companion of his care was admirable. Later, she met Ralph Beck, cousin to Fred, and they were married Nov. 25, 1945. From this marriage, Carolyn and Ronnie were born. Sadly enough, this marriage ended in a divorce.
Mom moved on with her life, with her two small children, with the help of her parents in Shelley. Then she met Laurence Gallup and married Nov. 4, 1950. Then on July 13, 1966, they were sealed in Idaho Falls Temple. Their lives started with four children. He had two children, Gaylon and Jackie, from a previous marriage. Together, they brought three more children, Larry, Darlene and Cherie. So this new family consisted of his, hers and ours. They lived in Goshen, Idaho, for many years.
One by one, each child left home to start their own lives. Mom and Dad remained there. They traveled, went on fishing trips and attended lots of game, enjoying their lives together. Then one day, they passed a home on Milton Street in Shelley, and Mom fell in love with this home, and from there, they moved to Shelley. They resided there together for 10 years. Laurence became ill and passed away July 25, 2004.
Eva worked at RT French's as a line worker for many years, retiring in 1969. Her and her husband managed their own rental properties.
She was a big fan of the Idaho Falls Chukars and attended many games with her twin sister, Edith. They lived for the games, and later, Eva became a Utah Jazz basketball fan.
Her daughter, Carolyn Jensen, moved in with her to care for her the past 10 years.
She loved her children and grandchildren very much. She dearly loved her sisters, Edith Lindburg and Dorothy Leavitt, and brother, Gordon Clifford.
Eva is survived by her four daughters, Jackie (Dan) Nelson, Carolyn Ockerman Jensen, Darlene (Kenny) Balter and Cheri (Keith) Fry; two sons, Gaylon (Kathy) Grover and Larry (Sherrie) Gallup; twin sister, Edith Lindberg; 24 grandchildren; 65 great-grandchildren; and five great-great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; sister, Dorothy Leavitte; and brother, Gordon Clifford.
The family would like to thank Teton Healthcare and Hospice caregivers and director, Dr. Brad Erikson.
Funeral services will be held 11 a.m. Monday, Oct. 31, at Shelley Stake Center, 325 E. Locust St. The family will meet with friends from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. Sunday at Nalder Funeral Home, 110 W. Oak St., in Shelley, and from 10 a.m. to 10:40 a.m. Monday at the church. Burial will be in Shelley Hillcrest Cemetery.
