Christina Farnsworth Mourant

Christina Farnsworth Mourant, passed away unexpectedly at age 28 on July 8, 2008 at her home in Paris, Idaho. She was born April 6, 1980 in Boise, Idaho to Doyle and Cindy Farnsworth. She was the fourth of seven children. Christina was raised in Boise and attended school there, graduating from Borah High School in 1998. She met Rod Mourant when she was 21, and immediately knew he was "the one". They were married July 20, 2002 in the Boise Idaho Temple. Most of their married life was spent in Boise, but for a nine month period in 2007, they lived in Orlando, Fla., and since then, in Paris, Idaho. Christina is leaving behind for now, the love of her life, and her two sweet children, Maggie and Andrew. Others of her immediate family surviving her are her parents, Doyle and Cindy Farnsworth of Boise, Idaho, and her siblings, Wendy and Barry Bleazard of Meridian, Idaho, Taylor and Jill Farnsworth of Caldwell, Idaho, Julie and Wil Graham of Flagstaff, Arizona, Spencer and Erica Farnsworth of Boise, Idaho and Andrew Farnsworth of Boise, Idaho. Christina was full of life and love and spread sunshine wherever she went. As one recent friend said, "She exuded the light of Christ." Her sense of humor truly captivated every soul she met. She faithfully served as a worthy member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in many callings in the Relief Society, Primary and Young Women’s organizations. Among her finest accomplishments were those of being an incredible wife and mommy. Her talents are not lost but are blessing the lives of others in yet another sphere as she awaits the reuniting with her family and friends. She is now in the company of loved ones preceding her in death: her grandparents Kent and Mary Farnsworth and Alva and Donna Leithead and a very special sister, Angela Farnsworth. Funeral services in her honor will be held at both the Paris, Idaho LDS chapel on Saturday July 12, 2008 at noon with a viewing beforehand from 10 to 11:45 a.m. and also in Boise, Idaho at the LDS chapel at 2650 S. Five Mile on Tuesday July 15, 2008 at noon with a viewing beforehand from 10:30 to 11:45 a.m.
