Lewis "Stan" Mortensen, 70, of Salt Lake City, Utah, passed away on December 15, 2023. Stan was born on February 16, 1953, in Provo, Utah, and was a beloved father, grandfather, and friend.
Stan was a sweet, grumpy, funny, witty, and lovable man who found peace in being a truck driver and exploring the open road. He had a deep appreciation for the beautiful landscapes of the country and enjoyed fishing on the Shoshone River in Cody, Wyoming, as well as visiting lakes in Montana, particularly Flathead Lake.
Stan cherished his daughter Brooke and adored his grandchildren. He often spoke proudly of his family, finding joy in their presence and accomplishments.
