Maria B. Lamb

April 1, 1935 - March 5, 2019

Maria Barendregt Lamb left her earthly estate at the age of 83 years old. Maria was finally able to pass away peacefully March 5, 2019 from a severe case of shingles known as Ramsey Hunt, a chronic and very painful condition that would be with her to death. Maria was born April 1, 1935 at her family farm in Heyburn, Idaho. This home was purchased by her parents in 1915 and is still in the family over 100 years later. Maria is a first generation American. She is the proud daughter of Adrianus Barendregt of Rotterdam, and Tryntje Runia Barendregt of Amsterdam of the Netherlands. Maria is very proud of her Dutch heritage and speaks fluently in her parent’s language. She was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She has held many callings from teaching to leadership callings in the Ward as well as the Stake. Her talents developed and multiplied, as she has served exemplary with each assignment. Being a part of the Ward choirs and dramatic productions was especially enjoyable for her. She was one of the best drama directors a ward could have! She wrote and directed many award-winning roadshows. In addition to holding these many callings she was often given the assignments of decorating for Ward and Stake functions and seemed to be the preferred person for this duty. The Gold and Green Balls that were decorated under her expertise were marvelous to attend. The Primary children and the youth that Maria worked with loved her dearly even into their adulthood. Living the gospel of Jesus Christ and giving service has been a very important part of Maria’s life. To describe Maria’s character in a few words they would be; have and be fun, smile easily, work hard, do your best always, take care of what you have, and never waste anything. Maria enjoyed sewing. She was self-taught but with a couple classes there was not anything she could not or would not sew. Most of the clothing worn by her children were hand sewn. She loved cooking for her family and there was never a meal that was not well prepared and tasty. Working in her yard was one of her favorite tasks. The yards were always designed beautifully and full of gorgeous flowers, always clipping the blossoms to brighten her home. There were not too many trees or flowers Maria could not name. Maria had a lovely voice but she always said her talent in music was the appreciation of it. Her home was always filled with the sound of music. And most important was her love of animals. Her best friends growing up were the animals on the farm. She had many cherished pets through the years. Maria is the mother of six children, Teena Marie, Tarea Lynn, Mark Curtis, Ricky Brent, Jessica Dawn, and Michael Reid. She has 13 grandchildren, 33 great grandchildren, and 5 great great grandchildren. She is proceeded in death by her husband, William Reid Lamb, her two sons, Mark and Ricky, and two grandsons, Wesley Ryan Lamb, and William Fernando Molina. By her parents, Adrianus and Tryntje, her brother, Leonard Barendregt, and her sister Leona Warr. Funeral Services for Maria will be held Saturday, March 9, 2019 at 12:00 pm at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on the corner of 1000 North and 900 West in Orem, Utah, where a Viewing will be held prior to services from 10:45 to 11:30 am. Interment will be held Tuesday, March 12th, at 11:00 am, in the Stockton Rural Cemetery, 2350 Cemetery Lane, Stockton, California. Funeral Directors: Utah Valley Mortuary.
