Here's the Michigan obituary. I'm sure the Utah one will be a bit different.
For all the family and friends that would like to come the funeral, it will be held on Friday April 4, 2008 in West Valley. I will post the address as soon as I know it, and then the burial will take place in the Murray cemetery. Please help us spread the word. Thanks!
