Hugh Dehart

Woodland Hills, Utah--Our beloved husband, father and grandfather , Hugh Quincy DeHart passed away unexpectedly on June 27th 2014.



Hugh was born in Payson, Utah on October 29th, 1955 to Louis and Virginia DeHart. He graduated from Provo High School, and served honorably for two years in the South Carolina/Georgia mission. Hugh met and married the love of his life Sheryl while attending Brigham Young University. They were married in the Idaho Falls Temple for time and all eternity, on June 3rd, 1977.



Hugh spent endless hours serving, and was the first bishop of the Woodland Hills ward, where he was loved by all. He had a great love for the Boy Scouts of America program, even earning the illustrious Silver Beaver award. A kind and caring man with a wry sense of humor, he loved his family, and was perfectly content just being at home with them. An outdoorsman with great attention to detail, he loved planning backpacking trips for his family. He was a handyman, who found joy by working on projects in the home and the yard--if he came across something he didn't know how to do, he'd read up on it, learn all he needed to know, and complete the project. He was a man with a great love for music and the theater, and always had a musical score playing in the background.



Survived by his wife Sheryl, kids, Matthew (Megan), Adrienne, Dane, Heather and Devin. Siblings, Guy (Vonnie), Dennis (Shirley), and Brian (Dawn, Lani (Joseph), and Hali (Lee), and grandkids, Lincoln, Landon, Lawson and Emmery. He was preceded in death by his parents Louis and Virginia DeHart, sister Cathy Young, and brother Craig DeHart.
