He was 88. A resident of Orem, Utah, William was born on Oct. 29, 1937 in Salt Lake City, Utah to parents William Walters and Lucia Seely Bradshaw, and elder brother to sisters Marcia and Linda. He graduated from East High School in Salt Lake City in 1956, where he was the quarterback of his state championship-winning football team and received an honorable mention All State award. He was also an Eagle Scout and sang in the a cappella choir. Bill served a mission in Hong Kong with the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, where he met the woman who would become his wife, fellow missionary Marjorie Gardner. They were married in Idaho Falls in 1961. He completed his Bachelor's degree in biology at Harvard University in 1963. Next, he pursued a doctorate in biochemistry at the University of Illinois, which he completed at the University of Washington in Seattle, when his advisor, William J. Rutter, relocated there. He went on to complete a postdoctoral fellowship at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory in 1970. Bill and Marge welcomed five children during that time period: Bill, born in Boston, Massachusetts; Bart, born in Salt Lake City, Utah; Becky, born in Urbana, Illinois; Brett, born in Seattle, Washington; and Ben, born in Oak Ridge, Tennessee. In 1970, he accepted a faculty position in the Department of Zoology at Brigham Young University. Soon thereafter, in 1971, at age 33, with five young children, he and Marge were called to serve as leaders of the church's Hong Kong mission. He and Marjorie opened the first mission in Vietnam in 1973 before returning to the U.S. in 1974. Over the years, Bill also served as a bishop, in a stake presidency, and as a branch president at the Provo Missionary Training Center. Bill taught at Brigham Young University for 38 years, working as a biology professor and later as associate dean of the honors program. Over the course of his tenure, his formal awards and honors include: the Karl G. Maeser Distinguished Teaching Award in 1985 (recognized as the highest teaching honor at BYU), two-time Teacher of the Year Award in 1994 and 1996 in the Department of Microbiology and Molecular Biology, and the College of Life Sciences Outstanding Mentor Award in 2000. Throughout his career, he was recognized for his commitment to the art and science of teaching. The thousands of Brigham Young University students whom Professor Bradshaw taught in introductory biology may remember his nuanced approach to teaching the science of evolution within a faith-based context, helping students to reconcile their scientific learning with their faith and sharing a message that scientific literacy and active church membership are compatible. In his later years, Bill and Marge became prominent advocates for LGBTQ+ Latter-day Saints and their families. Driven by love for their gay son, they served as chairs of LDS Family Fellowship, working tirelessly to promote understanding and unconditional love within the church community. They were also awarded with the Affirmation Ally Award in 2014 for their advocacy and support for LGBTQ individuals in the BYU and Latter-Day Saint communities. He also pursued a number of hobbies throughout his life. He was a die-hard Cougar fan, was "irrationally loyal" to the Red Sox and Celtics, and loved rooting for the Utah Jazz. He and Marge built a cabin in Star Valley, Wyoming, where they would welcome family and friends. He was a skilled fisherman who loved to take fishing trips with his sons. He also took up playing the banjo at 50 and became a proficient musician who performed for residents at assisted living homes. His was a life led by science, faith, intellectual courage, kindness and loyalty, and he will be missed immensely. He is preceded in death by his parents, his sister Marcia, and grandson Wesley. He is survived by his beloved wife Marge, his five children and their spouses Bill (Suni), Bart (Joyce), Becky (Bryan), Brett (Jeff) and Ben (Clare), 17 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren, and his sister Linda (Russ).

Scott was born at LDS Hospital on August 21, 1971, and lived most of his life in Salt Lake City, Utah. Growing up, Scott had a fascination and gift for figuring out how things worked. At a young age, he took apart a lawnmower engine and put it back together just to understand how it functioned. This led to his interest in auto mechanics in high school and later as a career. In 2007, Scott met his other half, Debbie, and over time they became a beautiful, blended family with three boys. He was a true family man who always put his loved ones first. He enjoyed taking pictures of his boys, oftentimes to their dismay growing up. Scott was dedicated to providing the best life he could for his three sons, Scottie (Sarah), Ian (Katelyn) and Austin (Ashley) and was very proud of the men they had become. He adored being papa to Aleeah and Gianna and was very excited for the birth of Baby Bouge expected in July 2026. Scott was also more than a little obsessed with his two cats, Oliver and Taz, who worshipped him in return. In his final years, he spent countless hours updating his and Debbie's home to make it a place where his family could gather. He will be deeply missed by those who loved and knew him. Scott is survived by his aforementioned family as well as his mother, Debra, his father, Darrell, his sister Amy (Brandon) and his nieces Emeli and Hanna.

Ann was born on April 15, 1943, in Salt Lake City Utah to Loyle and Margaret Adams. Her two brothers, Neil and Jack were much older and doted on her daily. She was their beautiful blue-eyed baby girl and the light of all their lives. Ann married Richard Strong on June 15th, 1965, in Salt Lake City, Utah. Ann and Richard were born in the same hospital just 8 hours apart and realized they had never lived more than a mile away from each other. They celebrated their honeymoon by driving across the country to make a new home in Boston while Richard attended Harvard Law School. They decided to settle in Los Angeles and had 3 kids together, and later they retired to Park City, Utah. Ann and Richard celebrated 60 years of marriage last year and were holding hands until Ann's last breath. Ann was a nurturer, teacher, organizer, homemaker, and hostess extraordinaire. Her home in Los Angeles, was known to have at least 1 party a week. She enjoyed dancing, hiking, camping, skiing, gardening, and lake days with her family. She had a green thumb and always said she would just talk to the plants to help them grow and bloom. Ann's plants and flowers always bloomed fully and lived much longer than expected. She made the best snickerdoodles and oatmeal chocolate chip cookies and had a significant sweet tooth. But what made her happiest and most fulfilled was celebrating all the trials and tribulations of life with her family and many friends. Ann is survived by her husband Richard Strong, her sons Matt Strong (Chelsea) and Brad Strong, her daughter Amy Martin (Chris), and her 5 grandchildren; Derek, Nathalie, Will, Isabella, and Tyler, along with many loving friends and neighbors who will all carry her light with them. A Celebration of Life will be held on April 24th, 2026, at 2pm at The Park Meadows Country Club in Park City, Utah. In lieu of flowers donations can be made to The UCLA Center for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, a place Ann helped to build. https://cdmd.ucla.edu/donate ]]></storytext><image><caption><![CDATA[ Ann Strong ]]></caption><height></height><width></width><photo>https://cache.legacy.com/legacy/images/Cobrands/saltlaketribune/Photos/SLT0037587-1_20260327.jpg</photo></image></item><item><title><![CDATA[ Cathy Miller Bolinder John Thomas ]]></title><storytext><![CDATA[ Cathy Miller Bolinder Johnson Thomas July 23, 1943 - March 20, 2026 Salt Lake City, UT-Cathy Miller Thomas passed away peacefully on Friday, March 20, 2026, at her daughter's home, surrounded by her loving family. She was born on July 23, 1943, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Irvine LaVere Miller and Ettie Graham Miller (Paxman). Cathy married John F. Bolinder (later divorced), A. Layne Johnson (deceased), and Charles E. Thomas (deceased). She graduated from Highland High School in 1961 and attended the University of Utah. Cathy worked at Gillham Advertising, First Mortgage Corporation, and DeWaal & Keeler, CPAs. She later retired as an Office Manager for Western Automatic Sprinkler and Palmer Christiansen Co. in Salt Lake City. Cathy is survived by her daughter, Kim Bolinder (Sandy); her sons, Mark Bolinder (Salt Lake City) and Troy (Laura) Johnson (Magna); and her stepchildren, Lori Johnson (Springdale), Eric (Deb) Johnson (Idaho Falls, ID), Teri Wallis (Middleton, ID), Kris (Mike) Nemelka (Glenwood Springs, CO), Kathy Thomas (Fruit Heights, UT), and Wendy (Joe) Dimond (Payson, UT). She is also survived by her three beloved granddaughters: Sara (Tom) Frojen (Underwood, WA), Jena Glazier (Eric Anderson) (Salt Lake City, UT), and Becca Glazier (Salt Lake City, UT); and her great-grandson Liam, the recent light of her life.

Cathy is survived by her sister, Cynthia Marsh (St. George, UT), and was preceded in death by her brother, Dr. Robert Miller, and his wife, Rosemary (Edina, MN). She is also survived by their sons, Derek and Drew. Cathy was loved by everyone and was always willing to help those in need. She cherished time spent with family and found great joy in gathering with loved ones. One of her favorite pastimes was playing games with family and friends, with moments filled with laughter, connection, and her spirited, playful sense of competition. One of her favorite stories to share was about her birthday. Growing up, her dad told her that the Days of '47 Parade, held every July 24th in Utah, was actually in honor of her birthday the day before. She believed it for years, and even after learning the truth, she happily kept the tradition alive. She would proudly joke that the celebration was still hers. After all, Cathy was worth celebrating for both days. She was actively involved in many activities, including Super Bowl and World Series boards, and she loved seeing others win and sharing in their joy. Cathy was deeply involved in her grandchildren's lives and treasured every opportunity to support and celebrate them. Beyond all of her accomplishments, Cathy will be remembered most for the way she made people feel: welcomed, supported, and deeply loved. She had a natural gift for bringing people together, whether around a game table, at a family gathering, or simply in everyday moments. Her laughter was contagious, her kindness constant, and her presence was a steady source of comfort and joy. Cathy was also a true survivor. She faced life's challenges head-on, enduring heart attacks, cancer, and countless obstacles with remarkable strength and resilience. No matter what was placed in her path, she met it with determination and grace, always pushing forward and overcoming so much. Her strength was an inspiration to everyone who knew her. To her family, she was everything - a proud grandmother and great-grandmother. She celebrated life's big milestones and small victories alike, always cheering the loudest for those she loved. Her legacy lives on in the strong family she built and the memories she created. She will be deeply missed and forever cherished. The family extends their heartfelt gratitude to Inspiration Hospice and her nurse, Melanie, for the compassionate and attentive care they provided. Services will be held at Memorial Holladay Cemetery, 4900 S Memory Lane, Holladay, Utah 84117, on Saturday, April 11, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. A small lunch will follow at Kim Bolinder's home. ]]></storytext><image><caption><![CDATA[ Cathy Miller Bolinder John Thomas ]]></caption><height></height><width></width><photo>https://cache.legacy.com/legacy/images/Cobrands/saltlaketribune/Photos/SLT0037607-1_20260328.jpg</photo></image></item></channel>
