Deceased Name: Glen Wilson Gardiner 1917 ~ 2005

----
ST. GEORGE, UT - Glen Wilson Gardiner passed away in St. George, Utah on June 21, 2005.

He was born May 18, 1917 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Walter Poole and Estella Longson Gardiner. As a lad he farmed the East Bench of Salt Lake City. During World War II he worked at the ammunitions plant.

He married Ethel Farr on January 13, 1944 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple.

After the war he and his brother Tom purchased a farm in Bluffdale.
He and his family moved onto the farm in 1958 and lived there until 1993 when he and his beloved Ethel moved to Southern Utah. He loved farming and ranching. Even though he had tractors he took great satisfaction in cultivating his sugar beets with a team of horses.

Life on the farm was difficult and he supplemented his farm by working as a school bus driver and as a security guard for the sugar factory in West Jordan. Later he became a deputy responsible for guarding the Salt Lake County complex. An avid reader and always thirsting for knowledge he read three different complete sets of encyclopedias from cover to cover.

He was a faithful High Priest and active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

He is survived by his five children: Vicky (Dick) Peterson of St.
George, UT; Dale (Vicki-recently deceased) Gardiner of South Jordan, UT; Craig (Glenis) Gardiner of Hurricane, UT; Lorin (Debra) Gardiner of Lehi, UT; John (Lisa) Gardiner of Marrietta, GA; 19 grandchildren, 23 great-grandchildren, and four great-great grandchildren.

He is also survived by his brother Thomas A. Gardiner of Bluffdale, UT.

He was preceded in death by his parents, his brother Ralph Gardiner, his wife Ethel, and one great-grandson.

The family wishes to express deep appreciation for the thoughtful care of the Southern Utah Hospice care givers: Bob, Sharon, Trudy and Cindy.

Funeral services will be held Tuesday, June 28, 2005, at 11:00 a.m.
at the Washington LDS 2nd Ward Chapel, 82 N. Main St., Washington, UT.

Interment will be in the Washington City Cemetery under the direction of Metcalf Mortuary 435-673-4221.
