LaVon Gloria DeMott 1931–2024 LaVon Gloria DeMott, beloved mother, grandmother, great- grandma and friend, age 93, passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family on July 2, 2024. LaVon was born on May 23, 1931, to Grover Otero and Marjory (Scribner) Otero in Compton, California.

They had three sons during their marriage and were divorced in 1960. LaVon was a devout member of the LDS Church and served many calls, including a couple’s mission with her husband, Ben DeMott, whom she married in the LDS temple in 1975. LaVon’s greatest love was for her sons and their families. Her happiest moments were spending time together and welcoming them into her home for a holiday get-together, a pool party, a sleepover or a vacation. LaVon is survived by her sons, Raleigh (Renee) Bunch, Marlon Bunch and Dana (Debbie) Bunch as well as her many grandchildren. LaVon is preceded in death by her mother and father, Grover and Margory Otero, her sister Beverly Otero, her husband Ben DeMott and her first-born granddaughter, Eva Marie Bunch.
