Bill Price

William Russell Price passed away on October 4, 2023. He was born on July 13, 1967 in Ogden, Utah to Patricia Allred and Harold Kent Price.

Bill graduated from Roy High School, where he grew his love of sports, especially football. He attended Weber State University and later graduated from University of Phoenix with his bachelor's degree in business while supporting and raising his family of four.

Bill married Jennie Pantone on June 21, 1991 in Riverdale, Utah, and they were later sealed in the Salt Lake temple on June 28, 1992. Bill and Jennie shared their love for 32 years. They built a beautiful life together full of service, compassion, and hard work as they raised their four children.  

Bill was a devoted member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served a mission in Texas and Caracas, Venezuela. Throughout his life, Bill has faithfully served in many capacities including: the nursery, primary, Young Men’s President, counselor in the Bishopric, and Bishop. Bill had an impact in the lives of those he served, and they in his. 

Bill currently worked for Associated Food Stores as the Vice President of Fresh Foods. Bill often referred to his career as a “banana stacker” but truly exemplified the American dream through his strong work ethic and leadership roles. Bill had extensive business intellect and so many cherished relationships throughout his career. His leadership was far-reaching as he made personal connections with everyone he worked with and often referred to his co-workers as his work family. 

Bill often showed his love in the form of pranking. His laugh was contagious and brought smiles to everyone, even those being pranked. Bill would often say “I only live to entertain myself,” but those who knew him knew he loved brightening other people's days. He was also known to give unique nicknames to many, which was often felt as a term of endearment. Bill was a captivating storyteller that drew people to him. Among his many loves of sports, Diet Pepsi, and classic rock, he loved people the most. To know Bill was to love Bill and to feel his exceptional love for everyone he met. 

Bill is survived by his wife, “Babe” Jennie Price, children: “Simba” Austin (Kirsten) Price, “Baby” Amanda Price, “Bay-buh” Jaycie (Cameron) Conrad, “Shadow” Mitchell Price, and four grandchildren: Mason, Oakley, Jordan, and Arya. Also survived by his father Harold Kent (Carol) Price, siblings: “Lerene” Kari Wybrow, “Brotha” Jeff (Gina) Price, “T-Bird” Tifani Price, and step siblings Dawn (Wes) Pearce, Nick (Kim) Benson.
