Nellie van Bree

Nellie Kathleen (Glines) van Bree, 49, passed away on August 13, 2013, in her home town of Farmington. Her family is deeply saddened by her untimely and tragic passing.
Nellie was born in Bountiful, Utah, to Edward Wendall and Mary Glines, on April 5, 1964. She graduated from Viewmont High, where she met the love of her life. Shortly after graduation, at the age of 18, she married Benjamin Paul van Bree on August 6, 1982. She worked for Zions Bank for several years, but later chose to stay at home to raise four children.
She loved spending time at the beach while camping with her family, and snowmobiling in the mountains with her husband. She adored her children and made it a priority to attend every sporting game, school concert, and every other event. She was a truly selfless person who would do anything for her family and friends.
Nellie was a devoted wife, an amazing mother and a trusted friend. She was the glue that held our family together and the oil that kept us running smoothly. She will be greatly missed and never forgotten.
Nellie is survived by her loving husband of 31 years; her children, Danielle, Laura, Jacob and Joshua; sisters, Jane (Garry) Lee, Rosie (Ken) Jarvis, Rebekah (Gary) Kemp, and brothers, Joseph Glines, Stephen (Susan) Glines, Russell Glines , and Michael (Shana) Glines. She was preceded in death by her parents.
