"I couldn't get up in the morning if I didn't think I could improve in some way today." - Win, at 86 years of age
Having had "a last hurrah" with her children, Winnifred "Win" Cannon Jardine passed away peacefully at home on February 20, 2015, surrounded by her loved ones.
Blessed with a quick mind, positive spirit, boundless energy, and a work ethic that did not dim, Win lived an abundant life, fueled by her deep devotion to the gospel of Jesus Christ, her family, friends, and her profession. Win was happy and spirited, always "On the Go," an active contributor through her nine decades of living. Win extolled the virtues of frugality, but was, by nature, generous. Win had a love of learning and took interest in everything around her - from the Utah Jazz and Utah's college teams to radio broadcasts from the Metropolitan Opera. She discussed the scriptures, news and daily editorials with family and friends, filled her home with original art and inspiring literature, and contributed to two writers groups through the end of her life. Mostly, Win and her husband, Stuart "Stu" Bryson Jardine, took interest in people and always acknowledged life's goodness as coming from God.
Win was a granddaughter of George Q. Cannon and Caroline Young Cannon and Joseph Morrell and Margaret Rowland Morrell, and a great-granddaughter of Brigham Young and Emily Dow Partridge Young. Win was grateful for her heritage of faith. She openly honored every branch of her ancestry who "sacrificed so much" to come to this land and "loved serving as a way of expressing my appreciation to them."
Win was born on November 14, 1919, in Boise, Idaho, to Winnifred Morrell and Clawson Young Cannon. She lived in Provo, Utah, until age 10, when her family moved to Ames, Iowa. She attended and graduated from Iowa State University with a degree in technical journalism and a minor in foods and nutrition. While a student, Win was president of Pi Beta Phi sorority.
Starting her early career at the beginning of World War II, Win was a home economist for the Martha Logan Test Kitchen, Swift & Company, the American Meat Institute, in Chicago, and then KMBC Radio, in Kansas City, MO. Win met Stu in Chicago and after the War married him in the Salt Lake LDS Temple on January 29, 1946. Win and Stu raised their family in Canyon Rim, Colorado Springs, and East Millcreek.
Win's combined affection for food and language resulted in her authoring eight cookbooks. As the Deseret News food editor for 36 years, Win tested thousands of recipes, gave cooking demonstrations, reported on food and cooking trends, and trained and nourished a whole generation of cooks. Through the years, Win always worked, mostly from home, testing recipes on her family and friends and writing her weekly columns late into the night and in the early morning. Win understood the power of food in making friends, mending fences, providing comfort to those in need, and in sealing relationships through the shared experience of eating together. To her neighbors and friends, she often brought a loaf of warm French bread or a batch of her signature caramels or homemade orange rolls. Win often said her idea of heaven was "eating good food with the people you love."
Win served in numerous capacities for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She was a member of the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and three Young Women general boards. She co-founded Lambda Delta Sigma, a national LDS sorority for women. Win was a member of the LDS Church's Adult Correlation Review Committee and the writing committee for Relief Society homemaking lessons. With Stu, Win served a mission in the Canada Calgary Mission. At the "last hurrah," Win's final words to her family were testimony of God's love and commandments.
Win held leadership positions in the state and national home economics associations. In 1999, she received an honorary doctorate in Family and Consumer Food Sciences from Utah State University.
Among her many contributions, Win co-founded Dinner Set, a social group that has met monthly for more than 60 years at the Lion House.
Win was preceded in death by Stuart, her husband of 67 years, their infant son, Paul, and Win's three siblings. She is survived by her four living children, James Stuart (Jeanne), Stephen Cannon (Ima), Mark Morrell, Ann Jardine Whitney (Tom), 14 grandchildren, and 16 great-grandchildren.
The family would like to thank the saints of the East Millcreek 16th Ward and area, in-laws and extended family, those who tended to Win, especially the family's special friend and caregiver, Heidi Dickman, her husband, Jon, the Dickman family, Cornerstone Hospice aides and nurse Martina Norr.
A viewing will be held Friday, February 27, from 6:00-8:30 p.m., at Wasatch Lawn Mortuary, 3401 South Highland Drive, in Salt Lake City, 84106, and again on Saturday, February 28, from 9:30 until 10:30 a.m., at the East Millcreek 16th Ward, 3408 South Celeste Way (approximately 3100 East), in Salt Lake City, 84109. Following Saturday's viewing, funeral services will be held at 11:00 a.m. at the ward building. Burial will be in the Bountiful City Cemetery.
