Thank you for visiting this memorial page honoring those who either graduated or would have graduated from Granger High School in 1965. We are honoring as many former classmates as we can find who have passed on. They were our friends, associates, teammates and, in some cases, our lifelong partners and companions. We also honor our veterans and those gallant young men who gave their all, in defense of the country they loved so much. To our MIA, James Schiele, we will never forget you and will continue to look forward to the day your remains are returned to the land of the free, the home of the brave.

Thanks to everyone who helped in the development of this memorial page, especially Diane Day Cooper, who would have graduated a Lancer were it not for her parents relocating their family in 1960. Without her, this would not have been possible. Thom Rich

Patty Kilby

Our beloved wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend passed away peacefully at her home in Sandy City on April 7, 2014 surrounded by her family. She battled cancer and other health ailments valiantly for many years, but finally lost her battle and returned to her Heavenly Father. Patty was looking forward to seeing her mother again, who preceded her in death. 

Patty was born to Arthur and Beatrice Kilby on May 17, 1947 in Price, Utah. She married the love of her life Jerry Townsend on December 8, 1984 in Salt Lake City. Jerry and Patty loved to play golf and travel together. Patty loved spending time with her family, including going on camping trips with them. She was a fun loving person and adored her grandkids who loved her dearly. She always made her grandkids smile, especially when she shared her vivacious laugh. Patty also enjoyed spending time with her close friends and took time to go out with them often. 

Patty is survived by her loving husband Jerry Townsend, who could always be found at her side. She is also survived by her daughter Tiffany Naylor; son Brian (Triscia) Callister; three stepdaughters:  Debbie McColley, Nicole Caroen, and Danielle James; two stepsons: Jay and Robert Hiatt; her father Arthur Kilby; two brothers: Jerry (Kaye) Kilby and Jeff (Carol) Kilby; sister Kitty (Lynn) McEwan; her grandkids whom she adored and many nieces and nephews that she loved dearly.

Friends and family are invited to attend a Funeral Service on Saturday, April 12, 2014 at 11 am at the Alta Heights Ward, 8600 S. 1475 E., Sandy. A viewing will be held on Friday, April 11, 2014 from 6-8 pm at the ward and one hour prior to the service.
