Mary Frances Henley
December 24, 1942 – March 27, 2026
Resident of Utah County
Mary Frances Henley (neé White), born December 24, 1942, in Bakersfield, California, passed away on March 27, 2026, at the age of 83, in Springville, Utah. Mary will be remembered as someone who gave her all for her family and who excelled at all the jobs she undertook. Known as the best typist at the USDA Cotton Research Station at Shafter, California, colleagues flocked to have Mary type their documents flawlessly. Not content to remain in that role, Mary became a valued member of Chevron’s legal department serving for 30+ years. After retirement Mary continued to help her family and friends; she will be sorely missed. Mary is survived by granddaughters Caitlyn Curtis and Cristin Curtis and great-grandson Aiden Houck and great-granddaughter Marley Houck. Mary is also survived by nieces Shirley Foreman, Cathy Hirsh, Martha Shoemake, and Marsha Shoemake. Mary was the loving mother of Lisa Curtis (deceased), and loving grandmother of Michael Houck (deceased). She was also preceded in death by her parents Milton L. White and Hetty C. White (neé Buford), her sisters Dorothy Shoemake (neé White) and Louise Foreman (neé White) and her brother Leroy White.
