Odie Marie Hiibner Muir, 95, passed away peacefully, Sunday, June 1, 2003, at the Logan Regional Hospital. She was born January 21, 1908, in Mink Shoals, West Virginia, to George and Retta Copen Hiibner. As a young girl, her parents embraced the gospel and were baptized into the LDS Church. The family decided to go to Utah in 1915 and settled in Mendon.

Odie worked hard as a youth. Working in the fields, and with the cows and other animals, was hard for her and her sisters. Later on, some of the boys got old enough to help also. It was at home that she learned to work hard and she continued to work hard through her life.

Odie married Byron L. Muir on November 9, 1926, in Logan and their marriage was solemnized in the Logan LDS Temple on their anniversary in 1964. They had two children, Boyd and Greta. Odie devoted her time to raising her children and taking care of the home and family. Times were hard during the Depression and World War II. Byron always had work and the family never went without the basics. Family always came first.

Byron, Boyd and Greta preceded her in death in 1973 and 1974. She is survived by Boyd’s wife, Gerri (Marvin) Traveller of Richmond; five grandchildren, Bruce (Mary) Muir of Layton, Gary (Elaine) Muir of Vernal, Kimberly (Rod) Zilles of College Ward, Gregory (Karen) Muir of Mendon, David Muir of Phoenix; twelve great-grandchildren and one great-great grandchild. She is also survived by a brother and two sisters, Vira Stuart of Ogden, Glen (Ivaloo) Hiibner of Mendon, and Dorothy Leishman of Logan. She was preceded in death by three brothers and two sisters.
