"I have loved my career. It has been an honor to serve families at a most personal time in their lives for the past 30 plus years. It is rewarding to have a family come to you with a heavy burden and have them leave having had the burden lightened through the service we render to them. Berg Mortuary is a very fine service establishment. I cannot picture myself working for a finer funeral family. Under the leadership of Carl Berg, the families we serve receive premium service second to none while offering this service at a most reasonable cost."

I was born in Ogden and grew up in Huntsville, Utah. My husband John and I have enjoyed living in Salem, Utah for the past 30 years. We have 6 children and 13 grandchildren. I enjoy my family, reading, and home and yard improvements.
I have worked many years in the administrative assistant, secretarial and customer service fields. Berg has been my home since June of 2007. My goal is to render sincere compassion and respect to families while striving to provide a memorable tribute to their loved one.

Don H. Orme was born on February 16, 1938, to Myrtle Leona Moss and Henry Abraham Orme and passed away on June 15, 2022, at Utah Valley Hospital. His early years were spent in Nephi, Utah where he was a farm boy working in the fields, driving a tractor from a very young age, and helping with the crops. He had a paper route as a young boy and tended animals from turkeys to sheep in the field. The family moved to Provo, Utah in his teen years, where he graduated from Provo High School in 1956. Don married Fern Webb (the girl across the street) who was his first and only love, May 28, 1956, in the Manti Temple.

Don attended Brigham Young University for his undergraduate education and graduated from the San Francisco College of Mortuary Science. He worked as a cook through high school and early married life. He began his career at Berg Mortuary in 1957 where he worked until his retirement in 2000. In his later years, he took up wood carving and would make a new snowman every year for his family. He kept busy carving including nativities, Santas, cowboys, a roly poly bear for every grandchild, and a parrot for every great grandchild. Don inherited a 1972 yellow Mustang and loved to drive it to local car shows. He was active in civic clubs serving in the Lion’s Club. He was active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where he faithfully served in many capacities in addition to serving two missions with Fern.

Don delighted his children when he brought home a spider monkey as a new family pet in 1968 and chased him in the trees. He also had horses and one of his favorite trips was in the Uintah mountains with Fern and friends. Summer vacations with his children were spent traveling to San Francisco, Lake Tahoe, Silverton, Oregon; Ontario, Canada; Nephi, and especially our beautiful Utah. During their retirement Don and Fern traveled and especially enjoyed traveling to all seven continents and over 40 countries, as well as most of the United States, often with friends and his brother and sister-in-law, Fred and Deanne. In later years they loved spending time in Hawaii and traveling with their kids. He collected hats from everywhere they traveled and put on a hat show for family with a different personality attached to every hat, even Smokey Stover.

Don was known for his outgoing nature and friendship. He always had a story or joke to tell. He sang Barbershop in his younger years and would often break out in song (sometimes with his own lyrics) and was known to sing to his family and especially his grandkids and great grandkids. Don and Fern loved having their family around and especially their grandchildren and great grandchildren.

He is survived by his wife of 66 years, Fern Webb Orme, and children, Nannette Orme, Carrie (Gary) Raulston, Tracy Jo Orme, Dena (Rick) Thompson, Bryan (Debbie) Orme, Jenny (Robert) Nelson, Karl (Ronda) Orme, and Kathy (Joe) Marzan. Don and Fern have 22 grandchildren, Jared and Lara Leigh, Jamie and John, Jon, Jodi and Cody, Jaycee, Tiffany and Greg, Sandy and Adam, Eric and Candice, Christopher and Falicia, Justin and Carissa, Marissa, Kyle, Cristin and Brennen, Blake and Brooke, Aaron and Abby, Brandon and Amy, Megan and Braden, Emily and Hayden, Josh, Sai, Jay, and Sophie. There are also 32 great grandchildren (plus another coming soon), one great great grandchild, and many grandchildren in law. He is also survived by his sister, Colleen (Dieter) Hetchle. He was preceded in death by his parents and his brothers, Robert, Fred, Hal, and Dennis.
