Gary Wilford Meads

Gary Wilford Meads has been relieved of all physical pain. Gary left this world on January 31, 2014 with his wife Bonnie and son Troy at his side. Gary was a proud man and loved his family dearly. Years of sideline coaching of his sons Troy and Kevin, two grandson, Trent and Travis were his passion. He traveled countless miles and never missed a grandchild's sporting event! He was an avid U of U and Utah Jazz fan. Gary loved his country and served in the US Army. He read the newspaper front to back everyday and could tell you what was in it a year later. A dedicated employee of the Granite School District for 20 years, retiring as the plumbing shop lead man. Other family enjoyments included camping and fishing. His favorite was Otter Creek Resevoir and Lake Viva Laughton. Survived by his wife Bonnie; sons Troy (Eva) & Kevin (Linda); grandsons Trent and Traveis. Thank you to the dedicated staff at St. Marks Hospital and St. Joseph Villa for your compassion and care.
