Keith Bradford Romney passed away peacefully in his home on Wednesday morning, January 21, 2015.
He held many titles, including husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, uncle, "Coach Romney," Bishop, and "Father of Condominium." But, the titles he most loved were "Daddy" and "Grandpa." In these various roles, he influenced countless individuals for good.
Born May 9, 1929 to Vernon Romney ("the greatest man he ever knew") and Anna Lois Bradford Romney ("his angel mother"), he will be greatly missed by his devoted wife, Janet Blackhurst Romney; his children, Vicki (Scott) Henderson, Brad (Sara Jayne) Romney, Lois (Rick) Waltman, Jenifer (David) Blackner, Amy (Dan) Bennett, and John (Joni) Romney; his twenty-eight grandchildren (and their spouses); and his thirty-two great-grandchildren. Keith was preceded in death by his youngest son, Richard Brent Romney; brothers, Vernon and Ralph; sister, Rowena Maher; and brothers-in-law, Robert Cutler and Jim Maher. Keith is survived by his wife, Janet, and by siblings and in-laws: Pat Pingree Romney, Pat Steele Romney, Beverly Cutler, Geraldine (Boyd) Busath, Yvonne (Mike) Dixon, and John (Chere) Romney.
Keith graduated from East High School, the University of Utah, and George Washington University Law School.
He served faithfully as a missionary in the British Mission, as a chaplain in the U.S. Air Force, and as bishop of the Garden Park II Ward (his most cherished and influential calling).
A man of many passions and myriad accomplishment, Keith's greatest passion and highest priority was his family, who will forever remember his sage advice from one-on-one conversations, weekly "Grandpa Rides," frequent family dinners, holiday celebrations, and annual family trips. He was always there for each member of his large posterity, and many others.
His devotion to family was demonstrated by the many hours he spent with them. He was generous beyond measure. Truly, one-of-a-kind!
Funeral services will be held at 12:00 p.m. on Monday, January 26, 2015 in the Salt Lake Bonneville Stake Center, 1535 East Bonneview Drive (1050 South). A viewing will be held on Sunday, January 25, 2015 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. in the Garden Park Ward Building, 1150 East Yale Avenue, and before the services at the stake center on Monday from 10:00-11:30 a.m.
Interment will follow the services at Wasatch Lawn Memorial Park, 3401 South Highland Drive (1495 East).
