Our Husband, Father, Grandfather, Great-Grandfather and HERO passed away peacefully with his family by his side after a courageous battle with cancer on October 20, 2013. He was born January 23, 1937 to Floyd and Verona Pease.

Dad was a succesful businessman. He owned and operated Champion Fabricating & Supply for over 40 years. He served in the United States Navy. He was a member of the Ambassador Club in SLC.
