Worked various jobs and retired from Utah Power and Light in 1998, after 30 years of service, where he met his soulmate and companion of 38 years, Mary Lynnette Rogers. They were married on December 13, 1986, in Kauai, Hawaii. They enjoyed many years of love and companionship together. I spent many hours in my second home, The Birdcage Lounge, where I had many friends. Special thanks to Dave Benson, Jim, and Annalee Walton, Bob and Lind Johnson, Francis Klein for their enduring friendship.
He is survived by loving wife Lynnette Rogers, her children Carrie, Craig, Mark (Cheri), Stacey, Scott (deceased), grandson "sidekick" Chris (Brynn), eight grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.
