She was born in St. John, ID Aug. 14, 1916 to Louis and Lula Jones Monson and was the last survivor of seven children. She loved learning and attended Malad High School. She moved to Salt Lake City, UT after graduation and started working for Mountain Bell Telephone and Telegraph (now Qwest) as an operator and stayed with that company for 40 years. She rose in the company in responsibility and was part of the team that brought Direct Distance Dialing to the Western States. She married Ross H. Marsh Sept. 9, 1942, later solemnized in the Salt Lake LDS Temple.

Amelia was an active committed member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints all her life serving as Relief Society president several times, a temple worker at the Salt Lake Temple and a guide at the Beehive House. She loved genealogy and had compiled a complete family history. She delighted in leading the music in her various wards. She was an extremely kind and generous person with her time and resources. She enjoyed laughter, her sister Mary and vacations.

She is survived by her son, David; daughter-in-law, Valerie; grandson, John; many nieces, nephews, and loving relatives. She enjoyed the companionship and love of her special niece, Diane Christensen. She was preceded in death by her husband, Ross H. Marsh.
