Lee Stillman Wagstaff
February 29, 1944 - November 23, 2021
Lee was a leap year baby born in Salt Lake City, Utah to Fay and “Stilly” Wagstaff. He attended Highland High School and the University of Utah, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in Marketing, then went on to have a successful advertising career for over 50 years. He married Paula Miles on 11 August 1967. Creative
to his core, he was a talented photographer, and mastered everything from home improvements to fixing a dent on a car. Lee had a unique ability to whip up a cabinet or desk over a weekend by day, while sketching pictures of your favorite car, or customizing a model train by night. With a pocketknife and a little spit, he could fix just about anything. Nothing made Lee happier than a new BMW, of which he enjoyed many, and he was always up for a fast drive up the canyon. Lee was a dapper dresser, had the soul of cowboy, and was a loving provider and leader to his family. Lee is survived by his wife Paula, daughter Skye (Rob) Krhoun, son Sloane, granddaughter Parley and sidekick Tucker. Lee was laid to rest at Mount Olivet Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, please enjoy a long drive in Lee’s honor.
In Loving Memory
I am so sad to read of Lee's passing. He was a dear friend, creative genius and a handsome gentleman. He has been a loyal Highland Ram and we will miss his clever annoucement of our 60th Reunion this summer. He will be missed!!!! Please know of my sincere sympathy to you all. Sending my love, Anne Larsen

A wonderful guy and a wonderful friend. Lee and I worked together at the telephone company during high school and have been friends ever since. We've had numerous corned beef sandwich lunches togther since then. I'll really miss getting together with my friend. I have many remembrances of Lee - a drawing he made of a beloved Porsche of mine, a Logo he designed for our CPA firm and many brochures and other advertising materials he created for us. Paula and family, we wish you the very best and share your loss of a wonderful guy.

I knew Lee while he was an active member with the local chapter of the BMW CCA. He was a big fan of BMWs and always gave praise to their great design. He was a fun and valuable member of the local board for many years. I think foundly of him and I am saddened by his passing. My deepest condolence to all who loved him. Craig Hawe

Paula, I was so saddened to see Lee's obituary in the paper on Friday. He was such a nice man with such a sharp wit. You always said that our Fort Douglas days "were the good old days." As we get older, I recall you both often. Gary and I send our greatest condolences on your family's loss. Penny Grikscheit
