McALLISTER, LeRay L.
LeRay L. McAllister, father, grandfather and friend, passed away 14 December 2005 at the Utah Valley Regional Medical Center from complications related to cancer. He was 75 years old. LeRay was born on 10 April 1930 in Anaconda, Montana, the son and only child of Leland Graham and Mary Luella Gray McAllister. He was raised in Delta, Utah, attending primary and secondary schools there, graduating from Delta High School. He then continued his education at the Branch Agricultural College (now Southern Utah University) in Cedar City, Utah. Upon returning from a mission to Germany, LeRay served in the US Army during the Korean War. During this period of time he met and married LuJean Roper. Together they raised five children, Ann (Richard Herlin), Douglas (Lynnae), Bruce (Debbie), Marla (Jeff Bennion) and Eric (Suzanne). Continuing his education, LeRay studied at Brigham Young University and Arizona State University, ultimately securing, respectively, a Bachelors Degree and a Masters Degree in Accounting. LeRay became a professor of accounting at Brigham Young University in 1963 after teaching for two years at the College of Southern Utah. In 1966 he completed doctoral work at Arizona State University and returned to Brigham Young University where he worked until 1994. As a professor LeRay was highly respected by his peers and a student favorite, continually achieving the highest rankings possible in student reviews. LeRay was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints serving in many capacities and callings including, Sunday school teacher, bishop, high councilor, counselor in the stake presidency, and, most recently, as stake patriarch. In this final calling, one that gave him tremendous satisfaction and spiritual growth, he pronounced 802 blessings. One of LeRay's greatest joys arose from years of dedicated service as a leader in the Boy Scouts of America. He was especially involved in scout leader training with the Utah National Parks Council, serving on numerous Wood Badge staffs in various positions including course director. LeRay and his wife, LuJean, served as missionaries in the Church Genealogy Library, an activity that solidified a lifelong passion for genealogy and family history. He also served for years prior to this mission and thereafter as an ordinance worker in the Provo and Mount Timpanogos Temples. LeRay was a dedicated public servant, actively involved in the Republican Party in various capacities. In 1974 LeRay was elected to the Utah House of Representatives, serving for six terms, two of which were spent serving as Majority Leader. He then successfully ran for the State Senate, serving for three terms. In all, LeRay served for 24 years as a state legislator. Despite an extremely active life of professional and political service and enthusiastic involvement with his beloved avocations, including music, gardening, reading and bird watching, LeRay was quick to say that his greatest achievements and loves were his relationship with his wife, his family and his devotion to the Lord, Jesus Christ. LeRay is survived by his wife of 51 years, his five children and 23 grandchildren. He is preceded in death by two grandchildren. Friends and associates are invited to greet family members at a visitation Sunday, December 18, 2005, at the Sundberg Olpin Mortuary located at 495 South State Street, in Orem, Utah.

After 17 happy years as a homemaker and mother, their wondrous union was cut short when Doug died at the age of 46 of cancer, leaving her with four young children to bring up on her own. And that she did! Working as an executive assistant at Valley Bank, Ginny raised her two daughters and two sons to adulthood with strength, grace, and humor. She touched many lives and won fast friends because of her intelligence and steady common sense, both leavened with a piquant sense of humor, and joy in sharing laughter. She enjoyed art, music, and travel, and passed those loves on to her children. She is survived by all her children, all still McDonalds: two daughters, Dawn and Skye of Phoenix; two sons, Stuart of Phoenix and Scott of Sonoma, California and their wives, Carol and Gloria; and four grandchildren: Douglas Emmett of Maebashi, Gunma, Japan; Megan Kelly of Tucson; and Holly and Robin McDonald of Sonoma, California; and also her beloved pug, Harriet (aka Harriet Pugman), who was her constant companion and will now reside with Stu and his two beagles.

Thomas Road in Phoenix, preceded by a visitation beginning at 10 a. m. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the American Cancer Society.
