Robert S. Heaps "Bob" Robert S. Heaps "Bob", age 90, passed away at his home in Mt. Pleasant, Utah, March 13, 2005.
Born Sept. 25, 1914 in a box car in Welby, Utah to Geneva Ure and Marion Heaps. He spent a happy carefree childhood primarily in the Sugarhouse area. Summers were his favorites, camping with his family, eating catfish and poor man's cake.
He began working for the telephone company in 1931 and was a respected employee for 42 years. He married Eva Heugly and they enjoyed 63 years together. They provided many happy summer vacations, fishing, boating, hiking, and playing in the ocean of the Pacific Northwest. Upon retirement he built a cabin on the Provo River in Woodland, a proud accomplishment and a place to gather for happy times throughout the years. Breakfast dates with Grampa Bob were a highlight for the grandkids.
Preceded in death by his wife, his parents, brother George Weston, and sister Margery. Survived by children: Robert (Carolyn), Paul (Jean), Judy Anderson (Peter), Kendall (Richelle), 23 grandchildren, 42 great grand-children and "Cat, all of whom will miss him heaps!" Funeral
Services will be held at 12:00 Noon on Friday, March 18, 2005, at Wasatch Lawn Mortuary Chapel, 3401 Highland Dr., Salt Lake City, Utah, where friends may call one hour prior. Interment will be in Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park.
