2013-12-16 Peter Schulz obituary

Peter was a high school and college friend that I never reconnected with after we moved back to SLC. We worked together at a window company where he still worked when he died.

 1948 ~ 2013
Our beloved husband, father, grandfather and friend, Peter Schulz, was called home to our Heavenly Father in the early hours of December 16th, 2013. He was surrounded by those he loved most. 
Peter was born in post war Hannover, Germany in 1948 and found his home in the Salt Lake Valley in 1954. Even as a young child the gifts of his spirit benefited all who knew him. He grew up on the same street as his lifelong sweetheart, Amy, and they were married in the Salt Lake Temple in 1976.
Peter's legacy on this earth is his unyielding loyalty to accept and help all those who he met. The circle of people that call Peter friend and brother are without number. His life was dedicated to serving God and his fellow men. He was generous to a fault and would freely give all that he had to help those who had a greater need. He loved children and they loved him. He will be sorely missed by all who knew him. He was awesome. GO UTES!
He is survived by his wife, Amy; his four children, Anja (Mark), Andy, Arianne, and Abby (Jeff); and his eight grandchildren, Liam, Rosie, Gareth, Charlotte, Owen, Hazel, Tristan and Logan. 
There will be a celebration of his life on Friday, December 20, from 7-9pm, University of Utah attire encouraged, laughter required. The funeral service will be held on Saturday, December 21, at 11am. Friends may visit with the family starting at 9:30am. Both services will be held at the Valley View Stake Center; 2245 E. 3900 S. in Salt Lake City. 

2013-12-06 Nathan Jeffery Conley is born

 At 4:34 pm in Lone Peak hospital Melanie delivered her 5th child, yet to be named. He seems perfect in every way weighing 7 lbs and 20 1/4 inches tall. Andrew and Elizabeth and Grandpa were 20 minutes late for the delivery, but Anna, Eden and Grandma were on time, but had to sit in the waiting room anyway.
He looks like a Conley child, and he has a dimple in his right cheek, not shown in these two photos. After a few minutes holding the newborn we took Andrew, Elizabeth, Anna and Eden to Costco for hot dogs and pizza. We brought pizza back to Jeff at the hospital where he stayed the night with Melanie.

Our joy in the newborn Conley was tempered by the miscarriage Natalie had on the same day. This loss is probably more difficult since they heard the heartbeat earlier and then no heartbeat at the last doctor visit.
