Las Vegas Review Journal,  7/2014

DR. WILLIAM SCHOFIELD JR. William Jay Schofield Jr., 54, of Las Vegas passed 
away suddenly July 19, 2014, in Alamo. He was born Nov. 21, 1959, to Jay and 
Bonnie Schofield in Caliente. Bill was raised in Las Vegas and Hiko and 
graduated from the University of Nevada-Reno Medical School before establishing 
his medical practice in Henderson. He married his former wife, Laurie Heaton, 
while in college and they are the parents of six children. Bill was a gifted 
and well-respected internist who loved his patients and staff and was in-turn 
loved by them. Dr. Schofield was renowned for his diagnostic abilities and 
received many honors throughout his career. Bill was an active member of The 
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, serving in several leadership 
positions. Bill's philosophy was to live life to the fullest. He felt blessed 
and fortunate to have found his eternal companion, Shelley Garrett, with whom 
he was able to share his love of travel, adventure and service for the past 12 
years. Although they shared a blended family, there was never "his" or "hers," 
it was always "ours." A highlight of his life was spending time with his entire 
family, who the grandchildren affectionately referred to as "Papa Bill." He was 
always young at heart and used any excuse to take family and friends to 
Disneyland or Hawaii, two of his favorite places. He was preceded in death by 
grandson, Grayson Phillips. Bill is survived by his loving wife, Shelley; 
parents, Jay and Bonnie; siblings, Julie (Marshall) Davis, Karen Robinson and 
Robert (Trish) Schofield; and children, Rikki (Erik) Phillips, William 
III "Trae" (Brianna), Charles "Kelly," Robert "Ryan" (Paula), Skyler and Jesse; 
and stepchildren, Alisha (Josh) Brandon, Carli (Dan) Sandoval and Christy 
(Zach) Martin; and 17 grandchildren. Viewing will be 5-8 p.m. Friday, July 25. 
Viewing again 9-10:30 a.m. Saturday, July 26, with services following at 11 
a.m., all at the LDS Robindale Chapel, 7670 S. Bruce St., Las Vegas. Burial 
will follow at Palm Valley View Memorial Park, 7600 S. Eastern Ave. In lieu of 
flowers, the family requests donations be made to the William J. Schofield 
Memorial Fund at any branch of Wells Fargo Bank. Donations will be dispersed to 
his favorite charities - See more at:
