Heath Niederee
August 17, 1984 – July 23, 2015

Heath was born in Kansas City, Kansas and is the first child of Tom & Laurie Niederee. He moved to Salt Lake City at age 4 and attended public grade schools. He graduated from Judge Memorial Catholic High School in 2002. Later on, Heath attained a degree in Economics from the University of Utah.

As an adult he worked as a server in various restaurants in Salt Lake City and took pride in his knowledge of food and wine while providing impeccable service to his customers.

He leaves behind his devastated immediate family of parents Tom and Laurie; sister Elyse; brother Trent; and Sonia the cat. Numerous extended family, friends, and co-workers are equally shattered by the loss of Heath.

A celebration of Heath's life will be held on Wednesday, July 29th from 6:00 to 8:00 PM at Starks Funeral Parlor, 3651 South 900 East, Salt Lake City. In lieu of flowers, please donate to your favorite animal shelter or pet rescue.

I am so fortunate and blessed to have had Heath as a friend growing up. He was an incredible influence on me in so many positive ways. I looked up to him and cherished his friendship. He loved his friends and family so much. Since learning of his passing I have revisited great memories of the fun adventures we had. He had exuberance for the things he did and he made everything so exciting. Smart and fun and hysterical and truly exceptional. Sending love and prayers to Mr and Mrs Niederee, Elyse, and Trent.

Tom and Laurie, Brennan brought this to my attention this morning. He heard about it from Eddie. There are no words to make this better, as much as we with we had them to offer. My heart is broken for you. Know that you are in my prayers, and that I will ask Father Patrick, up at the Huntsville Monastery to offer a Mass for Heath's soul.

I was lucky enough to love and be loved by Heath. That was the greatest gift he has given us all. I take comfort knowing that wherever he is now he is happy and nothing hurts anymore. I am so sorry for your loss. For the world's loss. Heath will live on through all of us who knew him. Everything he taught us by being in our lives will shine brightly in us just as it shined bright in him.
