Stafford Glaus Obituary
1955 - 2017
You went away so suddenly, We did not say Good-bye, but Brothers can never be parted, because memories never die.
On Friday November 3, 2017, Stafford shed the pains that life brings and moved on to a new adventure. Born June 11, 1955 to Gordon E. and Joan Thompson Glaus, the second of three boys. He attended local schools, graduating from Skyline High School and then attending Utah State University.
His love for his friends could only be rivaled by his passion for the outdoors. In 1999, he migrated to the warmth of the Virgin Islands, coming home to Utah last September, after 17 years.
Stafford is survived by his brother Brad (Sheri), Sister in law Becky Glaus, niece Lindsey (Creed) Stobbe, nephews Tyler Glaus, Rylee, Briggs and Tobin Glaus, and Carter, Jack and James Stobbe. Also survived by partner, Molly Todd. Preceded in death by his parents, brother Parker and companion Ketya Richardson.
A gathering of friends will be held Friday, November 10, 2017 at Larkin Sunset Lawn Mortuary, 2350 East 1300 South, from 6:00 to 8:00 PM. For a more detailed obituary and to leave condolences for the family, please visit www.LarkinCares.com. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Make a Wish Foundation.
To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.

Vaya con Dios Mi' Amigo Stafford.
We send our deepest sympathies to your family.
Know that you will be deeply missed and never forgotten.
I'll catch up with you on the other side of the mountain so you'd better have your boots cranked down and be ready to rock and roll.

Rest in Peace Stafford, on that big beach in the sky. 'See you on the flip flop!' as you often said.
