Bill W. Brown
March 30, 1949 - January 13, 2016
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our husband, dad, grandfather, brother, uncle and friend. Bill passed away peacefully at his home after a short illness with cancer.
Bill was born to Elmo & Virginia Brown in Los Alamos, NM.
Bill was the best of the best and the biggest of the biggest. He made a friend everywhere he went and made an impression on so many lives.
He spent most of his life working in construction. He loved to spend his time outdoors fishing, camping and razor riding. More than anything he loved spending time with his family and friends. He lived every day to the fullest and his passion for life is an inspiration to all of us.
Survived by his wife Keri; daughter Gretchen (Brian) Laird; son Steve (Jennifer) McBee; granddaughter Lauren; grandsons Jackson, Brody, Finn & Bridger; and sister Lindy (Jerry) Floyd. Preceded in death by his son Jamie, and his mother and father.
A celebration of Bill's life will be held on Friday, January 29th from 6:00 to 8:00 PM at Starks Funeral Parlor, 3651 South 900 East, Salt Lake City. Please use the complimentary valet parking provided on the north side of the building.

Bill was a such a friendly man who liked people for who they were and that was returned without question. I knew him in school and have never forgotten him for that. My sympathies to all of you who loved him so dearly.

Dear family, We had the great opportunity to meet and work with Bill as he was the foreman on the building of our new home. From 2005-2007 we saw Bill almost every day. We found him to be a very kind and considerate person to work with. His work ethics outstanding.. He made our home a masterpiece. We are so grateful to have met him. We offer our sympathies and pray the Lord will bless you and give you comfort at this very difficult time. Love, Gene & Julia Moffitt
