Robert Stanworth Obituary
Our devoted husband, father, and grandfather passed away on June 11th in Sandy, UT.
Bob was born on June 5, 1949 to Garn and Jeanne Morriss Stanworth. He married Jonna Latimer on March 25, 1970 in the Los Angeles Temple, and together they raised five children.
Bob loved to experience life and lived by the motto "work hard, play hard". The success in his career was founded on his hard work, honorable reputation, and dedication to his clients. He loved traveling the world, hunting with his boys, creating beautiful gardens, and vacationing with his family. He was brilliant, clever, and seemed to know how to solve any problem. His wisdom and knowledge will be missed.
Grandpa Bobby's grandkids will miss his silly jokes and crazy spontaneous ideas. None of us will miss his crazy driving! We love you dad! You will remain in our hearts until we meet again
Survived by his wife Jonna Stanworth and their children Trina Christensen (Mark), Luann Odom (Dave), Marc Stanworth (Jenn), Jill Wagner (Brandon), Danny Stanworth (Lisa), and 18 beautiful grandchildren. Also by sisters, Linda Dinkel (Don), Marie Ross (Tim), and brothers, Paul Stanworth, and Bill Stanworth (Gayle). Predeceased by his parents Garn and Jeanne Stanworth.
Funeral services will be held on Friday June 15th at 2:00 p.m. in the Dimple Dell Park Ward Chapel, 9880 South 3100 East, Sandy, Utah. A viewing will be held prior to the services from 12:30-1:45 p.m. Interment, Larkin Sunset Gardens.

Dear jonna
I was so saddened to hear from Marc of Bob's death. I am so sorry. While we haven't been in touch in many years I have fond memories of our friendship and time in high school. I have thought of you and your family and the Stanworths often. Please know that you and your family, and Marie and her family are in our thoughts. I know nothing can be said that will ease the pain at this time but there are many you hold you in their thoughts.

I was very sorry to hear about Bob's passing, Jonna. I just saw him at Wilma's funeral in March. I spoke with him briefly and was surprised that he recognized me. It had been a long time since I had last seen him. The Reaser and Stanworth families spent a lot of time together when I was growing up. Know that you have my love, Jonna, and that you will be in my prayers.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. We are grateful our paths have crossed over the years and appreciate Bob's friendship. We are saddened at his untimely passing. As a wise young Anne Frank said, "There will always be comfort in every sorrow, whatever the circumstances may be.". We may not have understanding but we can have peace. "Peace I leave with you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." John 14:27. We send our love and prayers for peace and comfort at this time. Love, Gert and Lori Jensen
