Liese Innsbruck Checketts was released from this mortal struggle, after a
courageous battle with breast cancer, on Feb. 29, 2020. She was born
Dec. 10, 1961 to Edgar and Carol Joanne Thompson. She grew up in
California moving to Utah at age 16. She loved being the big sister in her
family almost as much as she loved being a mother. She attended
Olympus High school in Salt Lake City and graduated from LDS Business
College and the University of Utah. Liese was a selfless individual who
never turned down an opportunity to serve. We will never know everything
that she did for those around her. She was always hosting a party or
making her home available to her daughters and their friends. She had
great love for her pets especially River and Ozzie. She loved everything
Disney and proudly displayed her collection of Mickey Mouse Ears. This
Disney joy was passed to her daughters as they never missed a chance to
go and enjoy the magic. She was by far the "best Aunt" to aI/ her nieces
and nephews and the best daughter-in-law you could hope to have. She
enjoyed traveling, camping in the trailer, and the family cabin. She loved
the gospel and was sealed to her husband in the Salt Lake Temple on May
19, 1989. She touched the lives of everyone she met and was a beacon of
Christ like love to all. She was the best cheerleader and dance Mom to all
of us. Her greatest accomplishment is her family. She is survived by her
husband Scott Richard Checketts, her daughters Brittney Anne Checketts,
Sarah Brook Checketts, and Meigan Tian Checketts, parents Ed and
Joanne Thompson and siblings. Lara (Park Lloyd), Leslie (Ted Wagner),
Leigh Anne (Scott Greco), and Lindsay (Troy Bos).
