Belinda Wilding Craft

August 15, 1963 ~ December 31, 2012

Belinda Craft is the fifth child born to Morris Dean & Loa Joy Wilding in LaGrange, Illinois on August 15, 1963.  

On December 27th 2012 she went to have a simple in and out surgery on her knee. On December 29th she woke up in her home in Lehi, Utah and after some labored breathing the ambulance was called, she stopped breathing and lost her pulse, and then was taken to the hospital where she remained on life support.  She died at the young age of 49 on December 31, 2012 from a pulmonary embolism (blood clots to her lungs) which caused severe injury to her brain due to lack of oxygen.

She has lived a life full of service in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and has magnified her calling in many organizations including Relief Society, Primary, Young Womens, & Sunday school.

Her life has been filled with purpose, service and love. She has continuously strived to become what Heavenly Father wanted her to become and has succeeded. She had a genuine love for others and had many friends. Her greatest accomplishment in life was within the walls of her own home as a wonderful mother and teacher to her children.

Belinda is survived by her husband Stanley Craft (and his mother Barbara Craft), her six children & two son-in-laws: Brittney & D. Randall Henderson, Angela & John Liddle, Spencer, Benson, Joshua,  & Jacob, and her 5 grandchildren: Katie Marie, Belinda & Alvin Henderson and Caleb & Oliver Liddle. She is also survived by her parents and all 6 of her siblings: John, Loa, Howard, Rebecca, Jennifer, & David and their spouses, children, & grandchildren.

The family would like to thank everyone for the love and support given them.
