George William Diehl, beloved father, grandfather and great grandfather, left us for his next adventure on Sunday, Oct. 7, 2018. Active and independent until his death, he attributed his longevity to a life of moving forward. 

He was born May 3, 1919, in Clinton, Iowa, to Roy and Edith Swanson Diehl. He lived his early life in Morrison, Illinois, and later on his family’s farm near Morrison. He attended a one-room country school in Morrison, where he graduated from eighth grade after seven years. 

He loved the outdoors and spent many hours as a boy hunting and fishing with his grandfather, Jacob. He was featured in Outdoor Life Magazine in 1937 with his hunting dogs. 

George graduated from Morrison High School in 1936 and completed a civil engineering program, extension division ICS Scranton, Pennsylvania, in 1941. He began his federal career in 1941 in Savanna, Illinois, and transferred to Tooele Ordnance Depot in 1942. In 1956, he led a special task force in the development of operations support for the Army Ballistic Missile Agency, which later became the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA). 

In 1945, he married Mildred C. Young of Lewiston, Idaho. George and Millie were the parents of four children. They later divorced. George retired from the federal government in 1976 from his position of Executive Assistant to the Commander at Tooele Army Depot. 

George attended the College of Business Administration at the University of Utah. After retirement, he joined the University of Utah Bureau of Community Development where he worked as the interim director from 1978-79. In this position, he assisted communities in the State of Utah in problem areas of land use planning, budget and economic development.

George valued community service and the responsibility of voting. In 1983, he was elected Mayor of Tooele, Utah. He served as mayor until 1994, having been re-elected to three consecutive terms. He would be disappointed to know that he will not have the opportunity to vote for his granddaughter in the upcoming mid-term elections.

George married Violet Gooch in 1986. They were married for over 25 years, until her death in August 2011. In 1954, he built a family cabin in the High Uintas at Christmas Meadows. He enjoyed hunting, fishing, and snowmobiling to the cabin with family and friends. He spent his retirement years as a day trader and always had a curiosity about the world and new technology around him. He kept up with modern technology and was proficient on his iPhone, iPad and laptop computer. 

George was a charter member of the First Lutheran Church, Tooele, Utah, for over 50 years. He was also a member of the Elks and Eagles lodges for over 35 years. George utilized his extensive management skills to help many organizations develop and grow. He served on various boards of directors and volunteered with numerous community organizations. Notably, in 1993, he was invited by the President’s Committee on Chemical and Biological Convention Matters, and the Academy of Sciences of the Russian Federation, to participate in the first Moscow Conference on Chemical and Biological Arms Control.

George is survived by his loving “village” of four children: Paul Diehl, Ronald Diehl (Connie), Tina Moerer (Michael), and Martha Burbidge (Gary); seven grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, one great-great grandchild and many special friends that he considered family. 

He was preceded in death by his parents; his wife Violet; two grandchildren, Eric and Shannon; and daughter-in-law, Diane. The family would like to thank special caregivers, including Intermountain Hospice, Dr. Carole Baraldi and Lisa Schofield.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Eric Moerer Memorial Fund at the Department of Family and Consumer Studies, University of Utah, 228 Alfred Emery Building, Salt Lake City, Utah, 84112.

Eva Joy Reid Anderson, mother of four, Nana of 12, and great-grandmother of four, peacefully passed away on Friday, Oct. 5, 2018, after a long battle with heart disease. Eva Joy’s name was a true reflection of her life and the love she brought to those around her.  Her greatest joy was raising her four children: Sandy, Carol, Derald and Traci, whom she firmly believed were her “greatest accomplishments.”

Born in Ephraim, Utah, on Jan. 8, 1945, to Kenneth and Vera Bills Reid. Eva Joy grew up with three siblings: Neil Reid (Voniel), Bonnie Jacobson Hilton (Glande) and Max Reid (Peggy). Eva Joy loved her siblings and was so proud of each of them and their families.

Eva Joy treasured her family and welcomed newcomers to her household with an open heart. Joy believed in the inherent good of all. She taught her family to be good to all, and to treat one another with respect and love. One of her greatest talents was to accept anyone for who they were and love them unconditionally. She will be remembered by her family for the countless meals she beautifully prepared (especially her amazing rolls), treasured handmade items, the crocheted blankets and stockings she lovingly made for each grandchild and great-grandchild. 

Eva Joy was preceded in death by her parents, Kenneth and Vera; brother, Neil; her husband, Gerald; her daughter, Sandy Anderson Smith (Woody); and grandsons, Liam Smith and Adam Crowell.

Our son, brother and friend, Travis Jack Walters, passed away all too soon on Friday, Aug. 24, 2018. He was born in Kanab, Utah, on Sept. 4, 1976, to Lonnie Walters and Sherri Crofts.

Always first to offer a helping hand, you could count on him in any situation.

Interested in mechanics at a young age, at 15 he acquired a beat up 1969 Ford Bronco to restore it. Through hard work and diligence, he fully restored his “pride and joy” to the envy of his many friends and acquaintances. Over the years, Travis worked as a skilled mechanic for various companies and took great pride in his work.

Travis attended Southern Utah University and became a member of the Sigma Nu fraternity, where he attained a life-long brotherhood with members of that fraternity. In addition to the many pranks and good times, the fraternity brothers also performed various service projects for the betterment of the community.

In 2001, he married Ari Ching. Together they traveled Europe extensively enjoying the many cultures. Of course, Travis also got to imbibe in the local beer and spirits, as well as enjoy the different cuisines. Travis and Ari later divorced.

Travis will be greatly missed by his entire family and his many friends. He loved the outdoors: hunting, hiking, biking and camping were his favorite pastimes. So many who knew him will remember and cherish all of the good times and memories shared with Travis throughout his life. 

Travis is survived by his father, Lonnie (Ellen) Walters; brother, Zach Walters; and countless family members. He is preceded in death by his grandparents; mother, Sherri Crofts Williams; and brother, Matt Walters.

Ramona Gonzales Lopez, our beautiful, sweet mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and loving wife, passed away peacefully, surrounded by her family in her home on Friday, Oct. 12, 2018.

She was born Nov. 20, 1933, in Rodarte, New Mexico, to Victoriano and Estefanita Gonzales of Rodarte, New Mexico.

She married her sweetheart, Tranquilino Lopez Jr., on May 26, 1958, in New Mexico when they embarked on his military career that landed them in their forever-home in Tooele.

She was a nanny prior to employment with Univac and later retired from Tooele Army Depot. She always greeted everyone with her beautiful smile. Her family was her pride and joy and usually the subject of her conversations. Her most favorite time spent was that with her loved ones. She was actively involved and gave them her heart in times of sadness and joy.

She was a devoted Catholic and member of St. Marguerite Catholic Church in Tooele.

Ramona is survived by her husband of 60-plus years, Tranquilino Lopez Jr., Tooele, Utah; six children, Larry Lopez (Diana), Taos, New Mexico; Lorraine Mascarenas (Joe), Tooele, Utah; Loretta Herron (Tim), Tooele, Utah; Louise Wiedmer (Alan), Vernal, Utah; Lori Hammond, Columbia, South Carolina; and Steve Lopez (Bobbie), Tooele, Utah; 16 grandchildren and 18 great-grandchildren; brothers, Lawrence (Cecilia), Ermo (Liz), Victor (Diana), Bernie (Rose), Liberato (Josie); sisters, Rosa and Otilia Polaco (Ike); and sisters-in-law, Ruth and Eva Gonzales. 

She was preceded in death by her mother, father, and brothers, Eustaquio, Michael, Jose, Juan, and sisters, Carlota and Alicia.

The family invites all who knew Ramona to a visitation and rosary on Thursday, Oct. 18 from 6-8 p.m. at St. Marguerite Catholic Church, 15 S. 7th St., Tooele, Utah.

Jerron Ray Barraclough joined his mother Sue, and his brothers, Brendon and Carston Barraclough, on Sunday morning, Oct. 14, 2018, at 7:15 a.m. 

Jerron will be remembered for his zest for life and humorous character. He was a very gifted artist and extremely methodical. He was everything a parent or friend could ask for: polite, generous, kind, respectful and loyal. My words to describe my son are “Vibrant and Handsome” to all of our friends and family.

“Quod Sit AEternum Meminisse” What we keep in memory is ours forever.

Love Ya Jerron

Dad (Kerry Barraclough)
