Our dear Husband, father, grandpa, brother, and friend, Roy Forest Littleford passed away September 27th 2015. He has left an amazing legacy of love, service and truly endured to the end.

He graduated from Lehi High School and continued his education at Trade Tech in Provo Utah.

He was a staff sergeant in the Utah National Guard for 16 years. He then worked as a surveyor and Draftsman for Utah Power and Light for 32 years.

He married Lois Wing in the Salt Lake Temple on May 25th 1953 and they have been blessed with 3 loving children Debbie (Jeff) Sermon. Julie (Dave) Hunt, and Blake (Elaine) Littleford.

They were also blessed with 12 grandchildren and 26 great grandchildren.

He had a love for people and a love of serving people. Everyone who had the pleasure of meeting him could feel his love and true concern for their well being.

When he retired at the early age of 55 from Utah Power and Light he started working with wood and converted his garage into a wood shop. He excelled in this craft and so many people have been blessed by this talent.
