Jean Deamer Bigler
December 31, 1933 — March 7, 2024
Mean Jean from Mountain Green had her last dance with her washing machine and from having just too much fun.
Jean Ellen was born to Ina Taysom and Lyle Deamer in Ogden, Utah. She attended schools in Ogden, Utah and graduated from Ogden High School in 1952, which she was highly active in the 50th year anniversary of her graduating class. She attended Weber State College where she was in the OT Sorority Club. After attending college, she was sealed to Robert Bigler in May of 1953.
Jean moved with her family to Morgan, Utah in 1962. She worked at Browning Arms where she met many friends whom she still has lunch and fun with. She then worked at Kent Smith Construction for 30 years as an Office Manager.
Jean loved her life serving her Savior Jesus Christ. She served in the Stake Relief Society Presidency for 15 years and served 25 years as a German Extractor. Jean was also a member of the Weber River DUP Camp for 40 years.
Jean taught for 20 years her beautiful rug braiding, she enjoyed knitting, crocheting and gardening her colorful flowers in her yard. Jean won sweepstakes at the Utah State Fair for her braided rugs of which she also sold at Mormon Handicraft. Our Mom and Grandma will be missed so very much by her family. She was a beautiful, kind, talented, smart, funny, creative, generous, unique, one-of-a-kind presence in all our lives. She was our cheerleader that we could always count on whenever we needed her to be. We will all miss her daily presence in our lives tremendously.
Jean was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Bigler; her parents, Lyle and Ina Deamer; her sisters, Carol Deamer Rohwedder and Gaye Deamer; her grandson, Ian Bigler; and her granddaughter, Casey Bigler.

Jean wanted to say a very special thank you to her only daughter, Keri, for helping and being her caretaker throughout the past few years and even more since being diagnosed with bone cancer.
Jean also wanted to thank a few of her many special friends and neighbors, Bart Smith, Rick Patterson, Kent and Shauna Haslam, Fay Hansen, ShaRon Williams, Dick and Ryan Clark, Orell Bindrup, Carol McCain, Norma Hassell, Sylvia Child, Marsha Ryan, Darin Mellott; Dr. T.
