Mary Jewel Lesley Kujala

April 21, 1947 - June 30, 2015

Heaven received an angel on June 30, 2015. Mary Jewel Kujala, 68, of Orem, Utah, returned to our Heavenly Father and love of her life. She was born in Tupelo, Mississippi on April 21, 1947 and was the youngest of three children born to Hollis and Nora Lesley. On April 9, 1966 she married her best friend and soulmate, Dennis Kujala of 40 years in Zion, Illinois. They later moved to Utah to raise their family. She leaves behind three children: Larry (Lisa) Kujala, Afton, WY; Tammie (Greg) Starks, St. George, UT; and Candy Douglas, Vineyard, UT as well as ten grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her husband, Dennis Kujala and sister, Doris Bullock. She will be remembered as a loving and compassionate woman with a great love of the outdoors, whether it was hunting, fishing, camping, traveling or just a simple ride through a canyon with her soulmate, and later, her children. I asked God for a minute and he gave me a day. I asked God for a flower and he gave me a bouquet. I asked God for love and he gave me that too. I asked God for an angel and he gave me you. Graveside services will be held at 10:00 a.m., Tuesday, July 7, 2015 at the Orem City Cemetery, 1500 North 800 East, Orem, Utah. Family and friends are invited to meet at the grave.
