John Bardin Obituary

John Benjamin Bardin
1980 ~ 2013
John Benjamin Bardin passed away on October 19, 2013, surrounded by family and friends. His long and valiant struggle with Marfan Syndrome came to a peaceful end.
John was born in Salt Lake City, Utah on April 16, 1980 to Pamela Kathleen (Holbrook) and Jefferson Davis Bardin. He married Heather Marie (Blue) on September 4, 2005.
Heather and Bryan were the center of his universe, and family was his only priority. His heart wasn't strong, but it was large enough to include everyone he met. He was patient, kind, and always eager to help someone in need. His laughter was contagious, and his sense of humor helped us all through the rough spots.
He loved soccer, fishing, camping, and gardening. Being outdoors was always a treat - especially at the beach or in the mountains. He loved assembling and racing radio-controlled cars, and he was the undisputed champion of Monopoly and Risk.
John is survived by his wife, Heather (Blue) Bardin, son Bryan, parents Jeff and Pam Bardin, sister Joelle (Boyd) Hazzard, brother Jeremy Bardin, niece Grace Steele, and grandmother Wilma Blue.
Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, October 23, 2013 at 12:00 noon at Jenkins-Soffe South Valley, 1007 W. South Jordan Parkway (10600 South), South Jordan, Utah. Viewings will be held on Tuesday, October 22, 2013 from 6:00-8:00 pm and on Wednesday from 11:00-11:45 am at the funeral home. Interment West Jordan City Cemetery. Online condolences at www.jenkins-soffe.com.
Special thanks to Dr. Donald Doty and Dr. John Doty and the caring staff at the IMC Heart Failure Clinic. You gave us 11 more years to be with John. Thanks also to Quality Solace Services for their compassionate care until the very end.

Pam & Jeff,
I'm so sorry to hear about your John's passing. It's hard to believe that the little guy who used to give you such a run for your money in church could be the same man I see in this picture.
The loss of a child is the hardest trial a parent can face. Our hearts and prayers are with you and your family.
