(1955 – February 5, 2015)
Larry Ward, 60, encircled in the arms of his eternal companion, Kelley Berrett Callaghan Ward, graduated with honors on February 5, 2015.
He was received by his loving parents, William T. and Juana Angell Ward, who preceded him in death.
Born in Whittier, California, Larry lived in various Southern California locations, Solvang being his favorite. He also spent over four years on the big island of Hawaii, in Pahoa. Some of his youth was spent in what he considered his true home – Rockville, Utah.
Being a talented architectural draftsman, school bus driver, paramedical examiner, nurseryman & farmer were all secondary to what he considered to be his most important role – that of a priesthood holder in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. His love for the Savior will be an example for many in the years to come, through the book he authored, ‘The Fifth Gospel’.
In addition to his wife, Larry is survived by his son, Thomas, and grandchildren Zack, Ike, & Madison.
