Woodrow F. Talbot
"Gentleman Cowboy"

Woody passed away at home on Sept. 23, 2010 of causes incident to age. He was surrounded by his loved ones and pets, there to help him pass. It wasn't easy for him to go. He loved this world, the beauty of the mountains, wildlife, and especially his large and passionate family.

Woody was born on Feb. 16, 1916, to John Marion Talbot and Olive Pearl Myers in Panguitch, Utah. He spent most of his early years there, until he moved on to help support his family during the Depression.

Woody has shared many interesting and delightful stories about his adventures on the road, looking for work. He helped build the Hell's Backbone Bridge near Escalante and did work in Zion's National Park for the CCC, worked at the sawmill above Panguitch Lake, and hopped trains to find work in the mines all over the country. He worked at Utah Power & Light Company until his retirement in the early 1980's.

Woody married Clarice Daly on October 16, 1941. Theirs was a committed marriage through all of the ups and downs. They were very much in love with each other in the end. They had seven children: Adele, Wally, (deceased), Gloria (deceased), Margaret Ann (Peg), John, Barbara, and Beverly. Woody was blessed with many grandchildren (greats, and great-greats).

Woody always had a special love for horses. When he was 40, horse training became his passion. He raised and trained Appaloosa horses, and was active in the horse show circuit. Watching him barrel race, riding Buck Shayne, was a highlight of most of the shows! He was a member of the Appaloosa Horse Club, serving as President for a time. Woody's training methods are very unique. He truly is a "horse whisperer".

Woody was a kind and loving man of few words. He was a man of integrity and acceptance. He will be deeply missed. Many thanks to his daughter, Barbara. and Care Source Hospice for their loving care during his final days.

A viewing will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 29, from 6 to 8 pm at the Memorial Mortuary on 5850 South 900 East. Funeral will be held on Thursday, Sept. 30, 2010 at Memorial Mortuary at 2:00 pm, with a viewing one hour prior to the funeral.

Interment will be at Redwood Memorial Cemetery on 6200 South Redwood Road.

In lieu of flowers, please make donations in Woodrow's name to Pilot Peak Wildlife Park, P.O. Box 3333, Wendover, NV 89883.
