Charles Stafford Obituary
Charles Kelly Stafford passed away on October 20, 2025 in Riverton, Utah. He was born on December 3, 1957 in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Sonny and Karen Stafford.
Kelly graduated from Brighton High school. He had a love of all sports and was a great baseball player for many years. When he got older, he played softball with his dad. Kelly worked construction for many years then decided to take over Beehive Plastics. He became very well known for doing RV tanks.
Kelly will always be remembered for his quiet but witty personality. But for 9 years, Kelly’s favorite thing to do was work on his Corvette.
Kelly is survived by 2 daughters, Stacy (Darren) Vincent and Kimberly Stafford, and a stepson Casey Epling. He is also survived by 4 grandkids and 1 great grandson, 2 sisters, Patti Hart, Janice (Val) Linford and many nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Sonny & Karen Stafford, a nephew Danny Linford, and his grandparents.
He will be greatly missed.
The family would like to thank Solstice Hospice for the loving care they showed and gave Kelly in the last four months.
