Joseph Woodman Obituary

Joseph Donald Woodman 10/07/80 ~ 08/08/04  WEST VALLEY – Joseph Donald Woodman, age 23, died due to complications from surgery at home Sunday, August 8, 2004.

Joe was an avid sports fan, and a talented athlete who excelled in both football and basketball in both junior high and high school. His athletic career was cut short due to a neck injury, but never his enthusiasm for the games he loved.  Joe was a fun loving, free spirited young man, who loved a good time with friends and family. He especially loved and spoke often of his beautiful little girl Taylee. She was constantly in his thoughts, and forever in his heart. Survived by his daughter Taylee, mother and stepfather Marsha and Brent Walker, brothers Jason (Wendy) Gutierrez, Phil Jones, and nieces Chantell and Taylor Gutierrez. A viewing will be held Thursday August 12, 2004 from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m. at the Russon Brothers Mortuary, 295 North Main street, Bountiful. The viewing will be followed by graveside services to be held at the Bountiful City Cemetery located at 2020 S. 200 W. at 1:00 p.m. In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made in his name at any Washington Mutual Bank.

I'm very sorry to hear of Joe's passing. He was a friend of mine and he was a really great guy. He was always willing to talk and listen if you ever had anything on your mind. We had a lot of good times. We also both had daughters, so we would always talk about our baby girls. I will miss Joe and I hope his family is well. Taylee needs to know forever that her Daddy loved her so much and was so proud of her.

My condolences go out to the family and Joe's beautiful daughter. I was a friend of Joe's in both jr. high and high school. Unfortunately we lost touch after graduation but I had bumped into him about a year ago and we had a chance to catch up. He said wonderful things about his daughter and being the proud papa showed me all of her pictures. I am sad to hear about his passing, I know he will be missed by all. Joe was so sweet and had a wonderful smile. One thing I will always remember about Joe is that he used to love to play with and tug on my hair in 8th grade spanish class, he was a character. So sorry for your loss..my prayers are with you all.
