- Jean Mabey Barker returned to her Heavenly Father October 14, 2003. She was born June 7, 1921 in Tremonton, Utah, to Orson Henry and Esther Marie Ford Mabey. She was raised in Malad, Idaho. Married Eugene Allan Barker August 7, 1946 and was sealed for time and eternity in the Logan LDS Temple. She attended Brigham Young University and graduated from the University of Utah as a registered Therapeutic Dietician working at Holy Cross Hospital and later the University of Utah Hospital. While in school she was very active in the Alpha Chi Omega Sorority and has maintained long and lasting relationships with her loving sorority sisters. She has also maintained close relationships with her childhood friends from Malad, Idaho. She loved all. She has been active throughout her life in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where she has held many positions in the Young Women's, Relief Society presidency, Ward Organist and Scouting. She has shown unending love, understanding, patience, and passion for her family. She has been the inspiration and a great example for her children, grandchildren and great-grand- children. She always saw the better side of all things, talked good of all people and was the first to forgive and give a hug. We pray that her example can be carried forth in each of our lives.

New Orleans, Louisiana [7] |
- Dr. Joseph Ford Mabey, a retired physician and longtime New Orleans resident, passed away peacefully with his family by his side on Friday, April 4th, 2008. He was 88 years old. Dr. Mabey was born on June 11, 1919 in Centerville, Utah to Orson Henry Mabey and Esther Marie Ford. He was educated at the University of Utah and later at Temple University's School of Medicine, where he completed medical school in just three years so that he could serve his country during World War II. Dr. Mabey enlisted in the Army and served in the trauma center at the 61st General Hospital outside of Oxford, England. Following the war, he moved to New Orleans and became one of Alton Ochsner's first surgical residents. He completed his residency in 1950. Following his training, he moved to Jackson, Mississippi and joined the staff at Baptist Hospital. In 1951, he married Frances Hammond Gordon. They soon moved to Malad, Idaho where he joined his father serving as the town's family practitioner. There they had three children-Melanie, Monique and Joe. Dr. Mabey continued as the town physician for the next 16 years. In 1967, Dr. Mabey returned to New Orleans and to Ochsner Foundation Clinic after being recruited by Dr. Merrill Hines. Over the next 20 years, he ran Ochsner's Emergency Room and was a great innovator in treating patients in the burn unit. He established Ochsner's occupational medicine program and later began clinics at Union Carbide, Waterford and Avondale. In 1988, he retired from Ochsner and became Avondale's on-site physician in the Medical Department. He remained in that role until he retired from medicine at the age of 82. Dr. Mabey devoted his life to medicine. Even after he retired, he continued to have an avid interest in medical advances and in the quest for what "remains to be discovered". His favorite charities included: M.D. Anderson, where he was named to the Century Club; Stanford Hospital; and Ochsner, for which he was honored in May 2007 with the title of Doctor of Philanthropy for his contributions. He was a humble philanthropist, an avid reader with a wide variety of interests, and a food connoisseur. He held a true love for the City of New Orleans-for the culture, the food, and the wellbeing of its residents. Dr. Mabey will forever be remembered for his generosity and kind spirit. He had tremendous character and touched the lives of everyone he encountered. He is survived by a brother, Rex Garn Mabey, MD of Saint George, Utah; his daughter, Monique Ford Mabey, MD of San Francisco, CA: his son, Joseph Ford Mabey, Jr. and his daughter-in-law, Beth Ludlum Mabey of New Orleans, LA; and granddaughter, Courtney Hammond Pieczynski of Washington, D.C. He was predeceased by his wife, Frances Gordon Mabey; sister, Jean Mabey Barker; brother, Orson Henry Mabey Jr., MD; and daughter, Melanie Hammond Mabey. Dr. Mabey was laid to rest in Anniston, Alabama at a private service with family and friends. Contributions in the memory of Dr. Joseph Ford Mabey are greatly appreciated and may be sent to Ochsner Clinic Foundation, Philanthropy Department, 1514 Jefferson Highway, Brent House, Suite 240, New Orleans, LA 70121.
