Ryan's Obituary

I wanted to post Ryan's obituary on the blog for anyone who may not have access to the papers that it was published in today:


Ryan Stanley Lott, 14, returned to his Heavenly Father on May 12, 2012.  He was born on March 16, 1998 in Logan, UT.  He was the second of five children (4 boys, 1 girl).
Ryan enjoyed the outdoors and loved camping and fishing.  He was looking forward to becoming an avid hunter, even though he hadn’t quite made it there yet.  He had a wonderful personality and always had a smile on his face.  He was our “teddy bear,” had a kind heart and loved little children.  He loved spending time with his family, especially his cousins.  He was an exceptional student and was working diligently on getting his Eagle Scout and Duty to God awards.  He loved the University of Texas Longhorns (we’re not quite sure why, but think it may have been the Horns logo).
He will be greatly missed by his parents, Michael and Catherine Lott of Hooper, Utah; his siblings, Alex (16), Jaime (11), Adam (6) and Ethan (3); grandparents, Jeri Moon Lott of Malad, ID, Stanley J. Lott (deceased) and Bob and Marylyn Regen of Newton, UT; relatives and all those who knew him.
A gathering will be held in remembrance of him from 6:00-8:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 17, 2012, at the Hooper LDS stake center at 5375 South 5900 West, Hooper, UT.  Funeral services will begin at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, May 18, 2012.  There will be a gathering prior to the funeral from 9:30-10:30 a.m.  Interment will be in the Hooper cemetery in Hooper, UT (immediate family members only please at the cemetery). 
We would like to extend a huge thank you to all those who have helped during this difficult time.  These include family, friends, neighbors, classmates and our “angels in scrubs” at Primary Children’s Medical Center.

We will all miss you Ryan, but know that you have been called back home.

  1. As I sit here and read this blog, my heart and prayers go out to you and your family. I can't image the feelings you are feeling. The teaching that "Families are Forever" must be very comforting for you. I have two girls that attend Rocky Mountain and they said the love that has been felt at the school the last couple weeks is overwhelming. We pray for you and your family during this difficult time and know that we will all see Ryan again. The Andersen Family
