HANKSVILLE - Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother and uncle, Harold Steven Hatch, age 69, died from complications due to cancer on Feb. 6, 2020, surrounded by his family in Richfield, Utah. He was born in Salt Lake City, October 19, 1950, a son of Gordon and Norma Ekker Hatch, and the grandson of Harold and Nell Ekker of Hanksville.
He graduated from Green River High School in 1969, where he met his sweetheart Carolyn Reay.

He attended Utah State University and Dixie College before marrying his wife, Carolyn on March 11, 1972 in Green River. Their marriage was solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple August 19, 1981.
Steven worked for 32 years for the Utah Department of Transportation. He served as a Wayne County Justice of the Peace and as a firefighter for the town of Hanksville. He also served as Bishop of the Hanksville LDS ward for several years and during that time he developed many close relationships and had an influence on many of the youth. His home was welcome to all.
He enjoyed fishing, golfing, trapping, hunting, mining, playing music, and had a passion for rock hounding. More than anything, Steven was a family man and loved each and every one of his children, grandchildren, and great grandchildren with all of his heart.
The world has lost a beloved, spirited man.
