Todd Rigby (born Jerry Todd Rigby) passed away on May 17th 2025 in Magna, Utah at the age of 61. He was born May 18th 1963 in SLC, Utah to Russell Dale Rigby and Deloris May Rigby.
Preceded in death by his parents Dale and Dorie. Survived by his daughter Katana Rigby and granddaughter Amirah.
Todd loved sports of all kinds, he spent football season rooting for the Jets, loved watching hockey, and basketball. Most days you could find him at the VFW where he was having a few drinks with his friends and playing pool, always easily spotted by his tall stature and deep voice until, later when he was wheeling around in his chair after some health complications he was suffering from. When he wasn't out and about he was at home watching comedy or horror movies and doing his puzzle books.
He spent his life being a grumpy stubborn man fighting with his own self, but deep in there was a heart of gold. He tried helping everyone he could when he could. He absolutely loved being Papa to his granddaughter and adored everything about her. He always had a joke to tell and we will all miss that.
There will be a Celebration of Life at the VFW post 7398 (9057 2700 S, Magna, UT 84044) on May 31st 2025 at 3p.m.
