Farr Jr., Barnard
STOCKTON, California - Barnard Floyd Farr, Jr., 61, died Feb. 23, 2005, in
Stockton, California, of cancer of the liver. Barney was born on Nov. 24,
1943, in San Francisco, to Barnard Floyd Farr and Jetta Barker Farr. An older
sister, Pat, and two younger brothers, Jim and Dan, were born there, also. Dan
did not survive. The family moved to San Jose in 1947, and a younger sister,
Nancy, was born. Barney attended Broadway Elementary, Woodrow Wilson Junior
High , and graduated from Willow Glen High in 1961. He became interested in
drama, and directed the play "Rear Exit." Also as a senior, he had the lead in
"Born Yesterday," and the family was thrilled with his performance. He enjoyed
working with his hands and made several fine articles made of wood. Barney
attended San Jose State and Brigham Young University, but found his niche in
Salt Lake City at the University of Utah. He enjoyed being a member of Kappa
Sigma Fraternity. He earned a Bachelor of Science degree in pol itical
science. Barney then resided in Las Vegas from 1967-1974, where he worked as

parents in their declining years. Some of his favorite past-times were
chatting with relatives, studying Mormon church history, keeping up with
current events and nurturing stray cats. He was outspoken and entertaining and
a lively dinner guest--perhaps the best storyteller in the family. He has
already been greatly missed. Humor, generosity and family loyalty were some of
his most outstanding traits. Surviving are his other siblings and their
spouses, 9 nieces and nephews and many other relatives. Barney was preceded in

George, Carter A.
Carter A. George, 68, passed peacefully from this life on February 25, 2005
from complications of ALS (Lou Gehrig's disease). Surrounded by his loving
family, he ended his 14-year struggle with the disease with his signature
courage and faith. Carter was born on August 29, 1936 in Bountiful, UT to
Aaron Rex George and Edith Laura Amundsen. He spent his early years in
Bountiful, then moved to Bynum, MT when he was 8. He was one of 18 children
and fondly remembered growing up on the family ranch. After graduating from
Choteau High School, he served honorably in the United States Marine Corp,
where he was a proud veteran of the Korean War. He later graduated with a BA
Degree in English from Utah State University. Carter married his eternal
sweetheart, Renate Erika Krisch, on June 17, 1960 in the Salt Lake LDS Temple.
They enjoyed 45 years of wonderful companionship and welcomed 7 children to
their home. Their children are: Daryl C. George (Diony) of Salt Lake City;
Debra G. Hunsaker (Robert) of Syracuse; David K. George (Nancy) of Layton;
Duane A. George (Aleshia) of Kennesaw GA; Daniel R. George (Shirley) of Novi,
MI; Dennis M. George (Sarah) of Kaysville; and Demere G. Knecht (Todd) of
Winchester, VA. They were also blessed with 24 grandchildren, who were his
pride and joy. Carter spent several memorable years in the South at the
beginning of his career working as a technical writer, tutor, and life
insurance salesman in Bunswick, GA and Melbourne/Orlando, FL. In 1975, the
family returned to Utah where Carter was a long-time resident of Kaysville and
Fruit Heights. He was a Certified Financial Planner, CLU and lifelong member
of the Million Dollar Round Table. He was a founding partner of Oxford
Financial Group, served on many professional boards and was highly respected
in his industry. He was at the top of his game when he was forced to retire
due to his disease. He loved helping families prepare themselves for their
inevitable future, and when it wa s no longer feasible to help them through
his chosen profession, he began a second career helping his fellowmen and
providing encouragement and assistance to other patients/families struggling
with ALS. He was a sought-after speaker, advocate for the disabled (serving on
the board of Enable Industries) and prolific writer. Carter dictated to his
computer (having no use of his limbs) several cherished books on family
history (including his own history), a guidebook to those with ALS, and
finished just days ago his last book - on dying. Carter was a faithful member
of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where he served in many
leadership callings including bishoprics, high councils, and stake
presidencies. He endured well, serving as a beloved Sunday school teacher for
the last several years of his life. Carter is survived by his wife, Renate;
seven children and their spouses; 24 grandchildren; his mother-in-law Emma
Krisch, Bountiful; and brothers and sister - Don George, Shir l E. George,
Keith R. George, Calvin R. George, James L. George, Dale George and Lois G.
Sessions. He was preceded in death by his parents, Aaron and Edith George;
father-in-law Wilhelm Krisch; and several beloved brothers and sisters. It was
surely a glorious reunion. Carter always said that when he died, he was going
to strap on his running shoes and run right through those "pearly gates." His
wife and family would like to thank all the family members, friends,
neighbors, business associates, trusted caregivers, members of the ALS support
group and medical professionals who have been such a source of help and
strength these last several years. Funeral services will be held on Tuesday,
March 1 at 11 a.m. at the Brookhaven LDS Chapel at 190 N. Country Lane in
Fruit Heights. Friends may call Monday, Feb. 28 from 6 to 8 p.m. at the

Hollis, Kenneth Harold
ROY - Kenneth Harold Hollis, a proud member of "The Greatest Generation" who
loved life so much and lived it to the fullest, has finally decided it was
time to go fishing on those trout streams up in heaven. He died Thursday,
February 24, 2005, at the home of his son, surrounded by those who loved him,
after a valiant 18-month battle with leukemia. Just two weeks earlier, Harold
had celebrated his 82nd birthday. When he was diagnosed with a pre-leukemia
condition in October 2003, doctors told him he probably had only 3-6 months to
live. But with the fierce fighting spirit that served him so well when he
defended his country 60 years earlier in World War II, he fought this disease
and continually fooled the doctors who counted him out, time and again. Just
two days before his death, he was up walking the hallways of the VA Hospital,
trying to get stronger in an effort to get well again and fool 'em one more
time. He was so proud to have served his country in the U.S. Army during WWII,
when he participated in the Normandy Invasion-D-Day plus 6 - and numerous
other battle campaigns. He received several combat medals, including a Purple
Heart. The words "class," "style," "grace," "gentleman" and "generous" come to
mind most often when talking about Harold Hollis. He was a man with great
character and courage, a man with many great friends who cherished their
association with him. He was an outdoorsman who enjoyed hunting pheasant,
ducks, antelope and deer, and later in life he became an avid fisherman. He
loved spending time at Ken's cabin in Wyoming. He'll be greatly missed by his
ol' hunting and fishing buddies Gerry, Dee, Tobe and Cindell, his son Ken and
grandson Taylor, but he'll be anxiously greeted at the gates of heaven by his
Mom and Dad, his two brothers, and by a couple of his dear old friends Reed
Shaw and Dee Hendry, who went ahead of him to scout out the territory and will
no doubt be waiting for him with a hearty laugh and a good bull sto ry. Harold
was born February 10, 1923, in Wayne, OK, the son of Taylor Albert and Elva
Hardcastle Hollis. He grew up in Oklahoma and, after World War II, married
Jayne Kelly in 1948. They were later divorced but remained friends. He married
Maxine Peterson in 1962. They were later divorced. He worked in the purchasing
department at Pacific Iron and Steel (later Jetway Equipment Corp.) in
California and was transferred from Los Angeles to Ogden in 1955. He founded
Hollis Industrial Supply and Paints in 1965 and owned and operated his company
until retiring in 1992. Dad leaves behind two sons and two daughters: Kenneth
A. (Bonnie) Hollis, North Ogden; Randy (Susan) Hollis, Roy; Shannon A. (John)
Sasse', Tampa FL; and Jacqueline Hollis, Ogden; 11 grandchildren and six
great-grandchildren, and numerous nephews, nieces and friends, all of whom
adored him and thought he was the greatest guy in the world. He is also
survived by two sisters: Evelyn McAtee of Fort Smith, AK; and Laverne Walck o
f Tecumseh, OK. We will all cherish his memory and all the good times we
shared together forever. He was preceded in death by his parents and two
brothers, Oran "Chuck" Hollis and Blaine Hollis. The family wishes to thank
his wonderful home care nurses, the doctors and staff at the VA Hospital and
the Hospice nurses who were so kind and helpful to Harold as he fought his
illness. Funeral services will be held Wednesday, March 2, 2005 at 11 a.m. at
