Bailey, Marie Leverich
Marie Leverich Bailey 1919 ~ 2005 Marie Leverich Bailey, age 85, passed away
peacefully in the home of her daughter, Mary, on January 31, 2005. Marie was
born to James and Hylda Leverich on March 14, 1919, in Great Falls, Montana,
and was the oldest of five children. She moved to Salt Lake with her family
when she was an infant and has been a resident ever since. Marie graduated
from South High School and embarked on a career as a secretary working for
Anderson Jewelry, her uncle Bryan Leverich's law firm in the Felt Building,
and later as the personal secretary to the President of Pacific National Life.
In 1940 she married Richard Quinn Bailey, cofounder of the advertising art
firm of Bailey & Montague. Marie spent a substantial portion of her life as a
homemaker raising her six children. In their child rearing years, Dick and
Marie enjoyed taking their children on camping, fishing, and skiing trips. The
family has remained very close with frequent gatherings and, in previous
years, annual trips with grandchildren to Southern Utah. Because of Marie's
prodigious reading habits and intellectual curiosity, she knew more facts and
had more general knowledge about the world than many college graduates. Her
talents, skills, and accomplishments in life were many. In recent years, she
took computer classes so she could access the Internet and keep in touch with
family members around the world. Marie was predeceased by her four siblings
and her son, Tom. She is survived by Dick Bailey, her husband of 64 years, and
children Rich (Anamarie), Jim (Judy), John (Robin), Mary, and Liz (Dave) Fox,
as well as nine grandchildren and four great- grandchildren. A graveside
service for family and close friends will be held Thursday, February 3, at 2
p.m. at Mount Calvary Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, donations may be sent to
Judge Memorial High School. Director's Neil O'Donnell and Sons.

attended BYU. She married Michael Hogarty in 1965. They lived in Michigan and
California before retiring in Utah in 1986. Anna was a woman of beauty, grace
and style. She lived as a feminist long before it was a "dirty word" and
delighted in it all the more when it became one. True to her pioneer heritage,
she was strongly determined, fiercely loyal and unwavering in her spirit. Anna
was a lover of beauty with an artistic eye. She was most at peace "digging in
the dirt" of her garden and enjoying the results. She was an avid fan of all
sports. Her recall of sports trivia past and present was uncanny. Above all,

family into her reason for being. For many years she was the loving caretaker
of her sister Maxine and later of her husband Michael. She remained ever
selfless and devoted to their care. When she became the loving "Gromma" of
Michael Baker, her devotion knew no bounds. He found in her a playmate,
cheerleader and confidante. When her second grandchild Anne Marie Baker was

dress-up and dolls, tea parties and sleepovers. Anna is survived by her
stepdaughter Nancy Hogarty Baker, son-in-law Lewis Baker, grandchildren
Michael and Annie, nieces Bonnie Bateman, Margo Tucker, Nancy Nielson; nephews

New York State and Utah. She attended school at St. Mary of the Wasatch, Salt
Lake City, Utah; Our Lady of Wisdom Academy, Long Island, New York; and Judge
Memorial High School, Salt Lake City, Utah. The family moved permanently to
Bountiful in 1936 and Jane graduated from Davis High School, Kaysville, Utah
in the class of 1938. She then attended Holy Cross Hospital School of Nursing
and the University of Utah in Salt Lake City. During World War II Jane joined
the war effort working in the laboratory at the Remington Arms Plant in Salt
Lake City, Utah, and then for Western Union in Los Angeles, California. After
returning to Bountiful she worked for Mountain Bell Telephone and Telegraph
Company in the Bountiful office from 1949 until her retirement on June 6,
1979. Jane married Ara Norman Lamph June 6, 1941 in Salt Lake City, Utah. They
had been sweethearts at Davis High School. He preceded her in death on January
10, 1998. The pride and joy of their lives has been their beautiful and
talented daughter, Jane Ann, born October 8, 1958. Jane treasured her many
friendships and had a special place in her heart for cherished nieces,
nephews, and cousins. She was a member of the Telephone Pioneers, Associated
Career Women (ACW), Delta Delta Delta mothers club, League of Women Voters,
Bountiful Ladies Bowling League and various bridge clubs. She was also a
member of Saint Olaf's Catholic Church, charter secretary and treasurer and
past president of Saint Olaf's Altar Society, and a member of the Catholic
Women's League Salt Lake City, Utah. Jane enjoyed spending time at the cabin
she and her husband Ara Norman designed and built in Island Park, Idaho. She
also appreciated all the special attention from the children in her
neighborhood in Bountiful. Jane cared deeply about her extended family and was
truly interested in what was happening in their lives. Her birthday cards and
remembrances always meant so much because they were signed Love and Prayers
Aunt Jane, and no one was ever forgotten. One of Jane's greatest joys was
attending the Elko County Fair with her family in Nevada and visiting with her
sister Grace. She also loved going to the monthly family Birthday dinners at
her sister Aulene's. Jane was a pillar of strength for her siblings and her
sister Donna frequently reminded us "Jane has always been our leader". And her
dear brother wants her to "Save a lunch date for me, we'll talk sports, love
Jim". Jane is survived by her much loved daughter Jane Ann; sisters Grace
(Bill) Evans, Aulene Egan, Donna (Bob) Thompson, and brother James H.
(Colleen) Cushing. She was preceded in death by her mother, father,
step-mother Lydia Ferre, step sisters Stella Mills and Faye Rowe, and her
husband Ara Norman Lamph. Her daughter would like to thank Jane's doctors,
nurses, certified nursing assistants and staff at Lakeview Hospital, Vista
Care Hospice, and Rocky Mountain Care for the special care they provided over
the past few weeks. She would also like to express special appreciation to Dr
John Dietlein and to Jean Weinberger. Jane Ann will always be grateful to her
family and friends who provided her with great love and support during this
time. Services to celebrate Jane's life will be held on Saturday, February
5th, 2005 at 2 p.m. in the Lindquist Mortuary Bountiful Chapel, 727 North 400

Steiner, Richard Russell
RR Steiner 2/26/1923 ~ 1/31/2005 Richard Russell Steiner, prominent Salt Lake
City businessman, died Monday, January 31, 2005 at the University of Utah
Hospital after a short but fierce battle with pneumonia. He was a few weeks
shy of his 82nd birthday. Born in Chicago, February 26, 1923, Dick attended
schools in Salt Lake and Chicago. After graduating from the Riverside Military
Academy in Georgia, he started college, but left to join the U.S. Army Air
Corps in 1942. He flew troop-carrying glider planes and C-47s in the South
Pacific during World War II, flying over fifty combat missions. He was awarded
the Distinguished Flying Cross for his wartime service. After the war, he
completed his education at Dartmouth College and graduated magna cum laude
with a degree in economics in 1948. He was a Phi Beta Kappa. Dick joined
American Linen Supply Company, the business started by his grandfather. It is
now known as Alsco. When Dick took the helm of the business from his father in
1959, the company had grown into a business with 22 industrial laundry plants
in three countries. Under Dick's leadership it grew to an organization of 127
plants in nine countries, now one of the "Forbes 400" largest private
companies. Stepping aside as President of the company four years ago, Dick
continued as Chairman of the company and remained very active in the affairs
of the business. Dick had served on the boards of First Security Bank, Walker
Bank, Holy Cross Hospital, and the Salt Lake Airport Authority. He was a
member of the Salt Lake Country Club and the Alta Club. Sports and the
outdoors were an important part of Dick's life. As a child Dick was a horseman
and had many an adventure on (and off) his barrel fat, sly pony Cherry and his
recalcitrant horse Prince. He would sometimes ride from the Fort Douglas
stable down South Temple to see his grandparents. As a teenager he was a
competitive swimmer, and his devotion to that sport led to building the two
Steiner Aquatic Centers on Guardsman Way and California Avenue in Salt Lake.
As an adult he took up scuba diving, and just last week at grandson Jamie's
fifth birthday party, he regaled everyone with the story of diving with his
brother Bob in the Florida keys when they met an enormous hammerhead shark,
who took a couple of passes at them. Frightened, they high-tailed it to the
surface and clambered into the boat, and Bob said, "Now I know why divers
always use the buddy system-there's a 50-50 chance the shark will eat the
other guy!" In his amusing and often self-deprecating stories, he typically
gave someone else the punch line. He enjoyed hunting. In November, he went
back out duck hunting scarcely a week after a fall getting out of the boat
required many stitches in his hands. He was dogged golfer and he loved playing
at the Salt Lake County Club. He was an avid skier, and had learned every
innovation in skiing technique since the Arlberg strap was in use, but no
instructor ever really altered his distinctive style. He never stopped taking
ski lessons. He skied at Park City eleven days before his death. He also
enjoyed playing bridge. He deeply treasured the good friends who shared all
these activities with him over the years. A licensed pilot from the age of 16,
Dick flew a variety of aircraft over his long flying career, from an Air Coupe
to a Citation II corporate jet. He gave up jet flying at the age of 77, but
continued to fly a motor-glider with his son Robert through last summer. On
December 6, 1949, Dick married Colleen Kearns Steiner, who died February 1,
1978. Later, he met and shared a 25 year friendship with Louise Judd, until
her death in 2003. He was also preceded in death by his parents Frank and Ruth
Steiner, his brother Bob, and his daughter-in-law, Jackie. Dick's three
children, Robert, Kevin, and Sheila, along with daughter-in-law Alice, were
with him when he died. Generous, exacting, diligent, dignified and unflinching
from beginning to end, Dick will be deeply missed by his children and their
spouses, and by his six grandchildren, Robin and Andrew Steiner, Alexis and
Elizabeth Asher, and Francesca and Jamie Steiner. A Memorial Service will be
held at the Cathedral of the Madeleine, 331 E. So. Temple St. in Salt Lake
City, on Sat., February 5th, at 10:30 a.m. Please, in lieu of flowers, send
donations in his memory to the University of Utah Hospital, 175 North Medical
Drive East, Salt Lake City, Utah 84132-5902.

Wagner, I.J. "Izzi"
I.J. "Izzi" Wagner "Semper Fi" Irving Jerome "Izzi" Wagner, 89, died Feb. 1,
2005 in Salt Lake City after a long life and a short illness. Izzi was born
March 31, 1915 at 144 W. Third South in Salt Lake City, the second of three
children of Harry and Rose Wagner. He was a proud alumnus of West High School,
class of 1932. When Harry died in 1932, Izzi and Rose took over the family
business, Wagner Bag Co., then heavily in debt during the Depression. They
built the business into one of the most successful companies of its kind in
the country. The family later sold Wagner Bag to St. Regis Paper Company, and
Izzi served on the St. Regis board of directors for many years. Izzi's
lifelong commitment to improving Salt Lake City helped shape the downtown
community. He was a long-time member of the Salt Lake Planning and Zoning
Commission, where he led the campaign to remove oversized signs and billboards
from downtown streets. He was on the Salt Palace Advisory Board when the
Convention Center was built and on the Airport Advisory Board when it was
reorganized as an independent board. In 1978, Utah Holiday Magazine named Izzi
one of the 20 most influential men in Utah. At one time, Izzi and various
partners owned properties on the west side of Main Street between Second and
Third South. He bought Trolley Square when it was just dilapidated bus barns.
He developed Wagner Industrial Park and he bought and sold other properties in
Salt Lake City and Ogden. His generosity made possible the Rose Wagner
Performing Arts Center, built on the site of the adobe house where he was
born, and the I. J. and Jeanne Wagner Jewish Community Center near the
University of Utah. He made significant contributions to LDS Hospital,
University Hospital and other health care organizations. He joined the Marines
in 1942 and was among the first troops ashore at Guadalcanal, where he
contracted malaria and was evacuated to the States. (He joked that a mosquito
saved his life during World War II.) He was a long-time board member of Zions
Bancorporation and a member of the Salt Lake Rotary Club, the
Japanese-American Civic League, the Utah Manufacturers Association, and other
business and civic organizations. His wit and humor made him a popular speaker
and valued friend. Izzi married his beloved Jeanne Rasmussen in August, 1942.
She died in 1993. He is survived by sister-in-law, Kay Schott, two nieces,
Saundra Peterson and Candace Wagner, and dozens of friends from all walks of
life. Izzi was buried in the B'Nai Israel Cemetery in Salt Lake City. At his
request, there was no funeral. Those wishing to do so may make contributions
in his memory to the Wagner Jewish Community Center.

Wood, Robert William
Robert William Wood 1926 ~ 2005 Robert William Wood, 78, beloved husband,
father, grandfather, and great-grandfather passed away peacefully on Friday,
January 28, 2005 surrounded by his family. Bob was born September 19, 1926 in
Salt Lake City, Utah to Laura Villetta Cowley Wood and Alan Gentry Wood. Bob's
father died when Bob was 18 leaving him with the responsibility of running the
family grocery business. He graduated from East High and served an LDS mission
in Argentina. Upon returning, he married his sweetheart Barbara Jacobs, August
24, 1949 in the Salt Lake Temple. He attended the University of Utah where he
was a member of the Sigma Chi Fraternity and Skull & Bones Honor Society. He
graduated with a degree in Marketing and remained an avid fan and supporter of
the "U" all his life. Bob became advertising manager for Associated Food
Stores then Vice President and Account Executive of Harris & Love Advertising
Agency. In 1959, he joined Dick Prows in a home building business. Together
they built their Prowswood Company into a significant residential building
organization. Part of the magic of Prowswood was its ability to find excellent
employees and cultivate them into the leaders of tomorrow. The Prows and Wood
team consistently built and safeguarded a reputation for honesty, integrity,
and uncompromised excellence. Bob and Dick developed Three Fountains (first
family condominium west of the Mississippi), Lake Pines, Cobble Creek, Old
Farm, Brookstone, Stillwater, Waterbury and The Springs of Country Woods, just
to name a few. Bob and Dick had a successful partnership with complimentary
talents and mutual trust. Their communities continue to exemplify excellence.
Bob was not only a builder in his industry, but also a builder of men. His
greatest accomplishment was his positive influence on the people he loved. He
was a man of integrity with a remarkable blend of strength, humility, and
compassion. When faced with challenges, he never compromised his principles.
Bob was a faithful member of the LDS church in every sense. His greatest loves
were scouting, missionary and temple work. He served the church in many
capacities including Bishopric, Stake Presidency, Church Pageant Committee and
Temple Sealer. He was a true disciple of Jesus Christ. Bob loved Arabian
horses. Wood's Arabians set the foundation for his children to win several
national championships. Bob was a prominent leader in the community. He served
as President of the Home Builders Association, chairman of the Marketing
Committee for the National Association of Home Builders, Commissioner and
Chairman of the Salt Lake County Housing Authority. For almost 50 years, he
served as Vice President of the Board of Directors for Dan's Foods. For six
years, Bob served as a Director and Treasurer of UTA and was instrumental in
making Light Rail (TRAX) a reality. By Gubernatorial appointment, he served as
a member of the Advisory Board of School and Institutional Trust Lands in
Utah. Bob was the recipient of many distinguished awards including - The
Presidential Circle Award, V.A. Bettilyon Utah Builder of the Year Award,
Distinguished Service Award from the National Association of Home Builders,
and Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award from the Utah Apartment
Association. Even as his health failed, he continued with determination to go
forward in purpose and commitment, mentally and spiritually. Bob and Barbara
felt strongly about family traditions. It was the motivation behind the
horses, the long-standing boating trips at Lake Powell, and bringing the
children and grandchildren to the Wood home every Sunday evening. We, as
children, express our love and appreciation to our dear mother for her
tireless devotion to our beloved father. Robert Wood is survived by: wife -
Barbara Jacobs Wood; children - Shellie Miller (Terry), Jackie Miller (Gary),
Alan J. Wood (Debbie), J. Todd Martin (Kimberly); sisters - Beth Koch (Bob),
Donna Johnson (Reid); 16 grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren. Funeral

Phil, and sister of Susan, Jill, Lisa, and Shawn, died at her home in Boise,
Idaho on January 28, 2005. Her life was slowly and tragically stolen away by
the insidious, capricious demon, cancer. Robin was born in Salt Lake City on
July 19, 1953 and grew up in Holladay, Utah. She graduated from Cottonwood
High School in 1971 and attended the University of Utah. She moved to the Los
Angeles area in 1977 where she pursued modeling, art, rock and roll, and many
other interests including mysticism and her own spirituality. Robin returned
to Salt Lake City in 1998 where she was employed by Qwest. She was transferred
to Boise in 2002 and made her home there. Robin loved music, movies, reading,
nature, and all animals, especially her cats Gretel and Elvira. She possessed
stunning beauty, extraordinary taste and style, a great sense of humor, and an
appreciation for all beautiful things, both natural and manmade. Robin is
survived by her mother, sisters, brother, and a large and caring extended
family. Friends and family may call at Wasatch Lawn Mortuary, 3401 S. Highland
Drive, Salt Lake City, Utah on Fri., Feb. 4, from 6 to 8 p.m. A memorial
service will be held at Holladay United Church of Christ, 2631 E.

family is most grateful to Robin's Stephen Minister Linda Carr-Lee, her
neighbor Pat Anthony, and her sister Lisa for their selfless gifts of time,
nurturing, and care. We mourn the loss of Robin who enriched our lives with
her bravery, her love, her dignity, and her graciousness.
