Saltas, Pete George
Pete George Saltas "One Tough Miner" 1918 ~ 2005 After 86 years of living life
his way, Pete George Saltas, left it his way, peacefully at home, Saturday,
January 15, 2005. Pete was born on the family farm, May 22, 1918 in Moreland,
Idaho to George and Evanthia Pappasideris Saltas, immigrants from Megara,
Greece. At a young age, his large family moved to Greek Camp in Copperfield,
Bingham Canyon, Utah where by age seven he began his reputation as a hard and
honest worker as a watch and shoe repairman, and newspaper delivery boy. Pete
spent most of his adult life among his fellow copper miners of Bingham Canyon,
first as a trackman for the B&G Railroad in 1936. He held various positions in
the powder and truck departments of Utah Copper (later, Kennecott), finally
retiring after 42 years of service as a General Foreman of mining operations.
Pete's open pit mining expertise was instrumental during the transition of the
Bingham mine from rail orientation to the modern, truck operation it is today.
Pete graduated from Bingham High School in 1936 where he captained the Bingham
football team. He was a noted baseball player of that era, and also spent time
as a semi-professional wrestler. In the 1940's he made numerous explorations
of Grand and Marble Canyons on behalf of Dr. Russell Frazier, and later joined
the many adventurous men searching for uranium throughout the Moab region.
There is little that Pete didn't try in his life. His strength and toughness
were legendary. So was his generosity and his love for his family, with whom
he particularly enjoyed camping, fishing, and traveling. He married and later
divorced Wanda Hatt, with whom he had four sons, Gary (Jeanne), Sam, Dick
(Diane) Irey, and Jim (Linda) Irey. On August 13, 1952, he married Stella
Nepolis, who was at his side, as always, on Saturday night. Their children
are, John (Paula), Terry (Roxanne), Steve (Diane), and Paula (Tony) Mason. All
of his children survive him, as well as 25 grandchildren, 12
great-grandchildren, and scores of nieces and nephews. He is also survived by
his sister, Mary Saltas Mannos; and brother, Tom Saltas. He was preceded in
death by his parents; and three brothers, Spero, Paul, and Alex; and two
sisters, Andromache (Maggie) Kastanis and Evangelia (Vig) Malkogiannis.
Friends and family may call at Redwood Memorial Mortuary, 6500 S. Redwood
Road, Tuesday, January 18, from 6-8 p.m. Trisagion prayer service will be at 7

Winder, Pamela M.
Pamela M. Winder 1934 ~ 2005 Pamela M. Winder passed away from natural causes
January 14, 2005. Pamela was born June 18, 1934 in Tamaroa, Illinois the
daughter of James and Mabel Martin. Shortly after her birth the family moved
to DuQuoin, Illinois. She attended school in DuQuoin, and graduated with
honors in 1952 from DuQuoin High School. Following her schooling in DuQuoin,
Pamela attended Stevens College in Columbia, Missouri graduating with an
Associate Degree in 1954. In 1955 Pamela entered the University of Utah. It
was there that she met her future husband, David. They were married June 24,
1955, and Pam and Dave then moved to Palo Alto, California where Dave attended
law school. During the law school years, Pam worked as a clerk at Palo Alto
Hospital. Without her salary from the hospital and the G.I. Bill, the couple
would never have made it through law school. On June 17, 1958 Dave graduated
from law school, and on that same date the couple's first child, Ann, was
born. She was followed by a daughter, Kay, in 1960, and a son, James, in 1964.
During this time Pam was completely committed to her family. She was a
wonderful wife and mother. After her children had all reached their teens, Pam
looked around for something to occupy her time. She had long been a voracious
reader and even when the children were younger she had attained a reputation
as a book reviewer. She accepted a job as an assistant librarian at Highland
High School. She worked there part-time for approximately eight years, and
then transferred to Rowland Hall. She thoroughly enjoyed both of these jobs
and particularly liked the involvement with the students and her co-workers.
Pam was a very private person and liked nothing better than curling up along
with a good book. Her enjoyment of reading was only surpassed by her interest
in her five grandchildren. These grandchildren range in age from 28 to two
years, and Pam loved and had a keen interest in all of them. Pamela is
preceded in death by her mother and father, Mabel and James Martin. She is
survived by her husband; her three children and spouses, Ann (Larry) Bugni,
Kay (James) Mit-chell, James (Shawn Apgood) Winder; and five grandchildren,
Laura Bugni, Tony Bugni, Andrew Bugni, David Mitchell, and Alexandria Winder.
A memorial service will be held Wednesday, January 19, 2005, 12 noon at the
United States Courthouse, 350 South Main St., SLC, Utah, room 246. (Second
floor). In lieu of flowers, please make a contribution to the charity of your
choice. Funeral directors, Neil O'Donnell & Sons.
