In Memoriam

The purpose of this blog is to honor our former classmates who attended Bountiful High School as members of the class of 1965 and are now deceased. These souls, who have gone before us, were our friends, our associates, and an important part of our own history. They deserve to be remembered. We were able to research a school photo for most of these former classmates. We have also located obituaries for many of them, and have included statistical information regarding the death of those for whom an obituary was not found. 

Our profound thanks to all of our friends who have sent information to assist us in preparing this labor of love. Researched and compiled by Yvonne Rasmussen and Diane Day.

**Due to Blogger limitations, dates for those who passed before 1970 will display inaccurately in the chronological list. You'll find those classmates' obituaries listed under 1970.

Ed Robinson






















Edward Lynn Robinson, aged 71, passed away April 17, 2018. He was born October 30, 1946 to Albert and Mary Evelyn "Eva" Robinson in Salt Lake.

He married Karla Bangerter in 1963. He will be lovingly remembered by his wife, Karla of 54 years, his son, Terry and his daughters, Kim and Kelly, as well as by his 9 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents and his brother Kenneth Robinson.

Ed worked for Peterbilt of Utah for over 40 years as a Diesel Mechanic as well as running a home garage service for many years. He enjoyed golfing, fishing, and spending time with family. He was a jack of all trades and a measure twice, cut once kind of guy.

Ed lived a life that was full of pride, joy, happiness and love. His generosity, work ethic, humility and selflessness are all qualities that those he left behind admired most about him. Ed was a man of few words, but when he did speak you'd hate to miss it. He had a wise crack for every situation. He appeared to be a tough egg, but his shell was very easy to crack. As anyone who knew him will attest, he was always the first to offer a helping hand, but would never be one to ask for help himself.

He will be forever remembered by everyone he met.

In lieu of flowers, grab a beer, call a friend, tune-up your car, or change your oil. He would like that.
A celebration of his life will be held on Sunday April 22, 2018 at the Bountiful Elks Lodge located at 544 W 400 N, in Bountiful, UT, from 2:00pm - 6:00pm. (Per Ed's wishes, casual attire is required.) We hope you can join us to honor his memory, and enjoy a cold beverage with friends and family.

Paul Schwartz

Paul Draper Schwartz













Our Dad, Paul Draper Schwartz, passed away peacefully at home, the morning of Saturday, January 27, 2018 at the age of 70.

Dad was born on August 11, 1947 to Paul Junior Schwartz and Alice Louise Draper in Spanish Fork, Utah. He spent his youth growing up in Mapleton, Utah, later moving to Bountiful, Utah and graduating from Bountiful High School in 1965. After graduation, he went to work for E-Systems, later know as Moog Inc., as a stock room clerk. He then enlisted in the United States Army on August 31, 1966, being assigned to the 25th Infantry Division, Tropic Lightning in Vietnam. After 3 years of service and being honorably discharged on August 29, 1969, he returned to the States and to E-Systems, where he retired in 2012 after 43 years of dedicated service, attaining the position of Project Planner.

Dad met our mother, Katherine Jean Bushman in 1969 after his military service and married her in 1971. They spent almost 34 wonderful years together before her passing in April 2005.

Dad is survived by his children, Laura Anne Conford (Glade) Tanner, Monica Jean Sime, Casey Paul Schwartz; grandchildren, Stefan Eric Tanner, Elizabeth Katherine (Tevis) Carpenter, Taylor Robert Sime; siblings Ann (Russell) Sheriff, Jeffrey (Analee) Schwartz; nieces and nephews; cousins; in-laws James Reid Bushman, Karen Ann "Annie" Bushman; and other surviving family.

He was preceded in death by our mom, Kathy; his parents, Paul Junior Schwartz and Alice Louise Schwartz; a baby sister Renee Schwartz; along with his in-laws Reid Bushman, Lois Bushman, Carol Bushman and Connie Bushman.

Dad was an intelligent, thoughtful, kind and generous person who wanted people to be their best. He was a no nonsense guy who expected everyone to live their life with the same dedication and self accountability as he did. Thank you for caring for us Dad in the way that you did. We love you and will miss you greatly. Rest in peace.

Our family would like to thank his doctors and their staff at Granger Medical Clinic, the nurses and staff at Heartwood Home Health & Hospice for being there through to the end and especially his nurses Jessica and Sheri.

A viewing is scheduled for Friday, February 2nd, at 1:00 p.m. for family and close friends at McDougal Funeral Home, 4330 S. Redwood Road. It was Dad's wish to be cremated.

Always remember how important your family is, whether they are your blood or your friends and be dedicated to loving and caring for each other throughout our lives.Published in Salt Lake Tribune on Jan. 31, 2018.
