French Club, Traveling Assembly, Model U.N., Senior Sluff Day Committee. ~ ~ ~ ~ I worked for five years at Hercules in Salt Lake City (as a rocket scientist); five years at Eastman Kodak in Rochester, New York; and 27 years at Hughes in Los Angeles. Along the way I also picked up a Physics degree at BYU and did graduate work in Mathematics at the University of Rochester. Since retirement in 1999 I have alternated between travel and work. The main reason for my continued peripatetic lifestyle is that I can't decide where I want to live. I would like to be some place quieter and less crowded, but 34 years in southern California has turned me into a total weather wimp! Preferred email address: rvbeckwith@compuserve.com @2006

Howard and Regina Buckley

Class of 1958. Howard D. Buckley. Football, Wrestling, Track, Lettermen, Radio Physics, Ski Club, Model U.N., Soph Ball Advertising, Junior Prom Decoration Committee, Senior Hope Advertising Committee, Senior Class Fundraising. BYU MS Industrial Education 1963. ~ ~ ~ ~ HIS OBITUARY: Howard Darnel Buckley (Shumway) was born July 22, 1940, in Tropic, Utah. He passed away on August 15, 2021, in Apple Valley, California. He was surrounded by family and friends as he left this mortal life. And he was welcomed by those who had been waiting for him beyond the veil. Howard was the last child born to James Howard and Lieuwen Savage Shumway. He had four siblings, Ronald, Sharon. Beth and Ardis. When he was a very young child he was adopted by William D. and Annie Wheelwright Buckley. Howard died of pancreatic cancer on August 15, 2021. He attended B Y Elementary, B Y Jr. High and Brigham Young High School, graduating in the Class of 1958. Howard played kickball in the blocked off 6th North street, alongside the elementary school. He played basketball on the asphalt just outside the school (the basket looked like an open tulip with no backboard on it). He played baseball in a field a couple of blocks north of school. In high school he excelled in academics and sports. He competed in all of the sports, but football was his favorite. He was small in stature and got knocked around a lot but that didn’t deter him. When Howard was a sophomore at BY High his seminary class took a trip to the Manti Temple and the temple permitted the small class of about 20 to have a special meeting in the temple just for the class. A few weeks before Howard’s passing he spoke of that “wonderful experience the class had in the temple. That the class met in the temple for hours being instructed by their seminary teacher, Melvin Brooks, and virtually everyone in that class bore their testimonies and feelings in that spiritual meeting.” Howard further expressed that it was “an experience that stayed with him his entire life and guided him through life’s many challenges and established his testimony of the truthfulness of the gospel.” After graduating from high school in 1958 he joined the Army Reserves for six months of active duty at Fort Ord, California, along with some of his best friends, Dee Sandgren, Bob Terry, Steve Nelson, John Whetten and Jim Wilde. All his life BYU Football was his passion as he watched his beloved Cougars play. He was an avid fan, following them wherever they played and whenever he could. He was known for driving all the way from California just to watch a game, and then return all the way back home the very next day. He was especially proud of the 1984 National Championship Game he attended in San Diego. Howard was a talented snow skier and won many championships himself. He was especially gifted at downhill racing and could compete against men half his age and showed them how it was done. He was such a great skier that his scholarship paid for his education at BYU. Howard met Diane Williams Buckley at BYU and married her in the Salt Lake Temple. Together they had three children. Cassandra, Nicole and Howie. He also had five grandchildren. Howard and Diane were divorced and he later married Regina Lillquist Hudson. Regina had a son Trevor and a daughter Lisa and two grandsons, Preston and Nickolas, and they were welcomed by Howard. Howard was a gifted builder and he built every home he lived in over the years, each one bigger and better than the last. He also designed them all and built furniture for his homes and for others. He was a master craftsman. Howard discovered wind sailing later in life and it also became his passion. He went to Baha every January over the years and said he did so to “sail his brains out.” He looked forward to those trips like a child at Christmas. Howard was preceded in death by his birth parents, Howard and Lieuwen Shumway, and his adoptive parents, William and Annie Buckley. Also preceded in death by two life-long friends, Gar Jensen and Sherm Cloward. Howard’s funeral services were held on August 19, 2021, in Howard’s home ward in Apple Valley, California. Howard was a beloved friend by many. He was also buried next to his parents in the Provo City Cemetery. Many friends and family came from quite a distance to pay tribute to their life-long friend. It was a beautiful day and after the dedication of the grave by Terry Robbinet, the Cougar Fight Song was sung and everyone joined in the rousing chorus of “Rise and Shout.” Blue and white balloons were then released and they sailed all the way over the LaVell Edwards Stadium. It was hard to say goodbye to this beloved husband, father, brother, grandfather and friend. He was a giant of a man, with a deep faith in God and a willingness to serve his fellow man. Till we meet again. Sail on …..
UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN You can shed tears that I am gone.. Or you can Smile because I’ve lived. Your heart can be empty because you can’t See me, or you can let it be full of love We shared. You can remember me and think Only that I am gone, or you can cherish my Memory and let it live on. You can live in the Sorrows of yesterday, or you could do what I Would want you to to do. Greet tomorrow with hope, love and go on.

They ran free as wild horses and had a very happy childhood. Janet completed high school at Brigham Young High School in Provo in the Class of 1958. She then graduated with a cosmetology license from Hollywood Beauty College in Salt Lake City, Utah. She was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served in the Primary and Relief Society. She worked at North Ogden Elementary School. She led a life of service, always thinking of others. She enjoyed gardening, cooking, canning, reading, shopping, lunch with the girls, traveling, and marking goals off her bucket list. She lived in North Ogden, Utah and St. George, Utah. She took joy in being a wife, mother, and grandmother. She and Clark raised four children. She said her greatest accomplishment was her family. They brought her much happiness. Seldom a day went by that she did not talk on the phone with one or all of her children. She is survived by her husband of 59 years, Clark and their four children: JaNeece Knowles (Keith), DeAnn Fifield (Steve), Richard Rose (Julee), Nicole Christensen (Chad), 18 grandchildren, 10 great-grandchildren.

Class of 1958. Linda Lee Johnson. ~ ~ ~ ~ HER OBITUARY: LINDA LEE JOHNSON CASTLETON. Walnut Creek, California. Linda Lee (Johnson) Castleton, 82, passed away suddenly on May 4th, 2023. Linda was born in Provo, Utah to LeRoy and Crystal Johnson on September 8, 1940. She attended Brigham Young High School in the Class of 1958, then attended BYU majoring in Music. Linda later moved to Salt Lake City where she worked in the Secretary of State's Office at the State Capitol, did some modeling and was 1st runner-up to Miss Utah. From a very young age, Linda had a strong passion for music and singing. At 18 she auditioned for and was accepted into the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and was the youngest member at the time. Linda sang in the choir for 10 years and traveled with the choir all over the U.S. and Canada. Being a member of the choir was a proud achievement and highlight in Linda's life and she would talk about it often. She would love to mention her singing with the choir on a cold January day on the steps of the Capitol during the inauguration of President Nixon. It was while singing in the choir that Linda met her loving husband, John, also a choir member. Linda and John got married and moved to Sacramento, where Linda worked at the State Capitol for then Governor Ronald Reagan, another highlight in her life. They eventually moved to the San Francisco Bay Area where they raised two children, Jennifer and John Jr. Linda was a stay-at-home Mom for over 22 years before going back to work at The Waterford at Rossmoor, in Walnut Creek, an elegant Senior Living Community. Linda worked there for 21 years and loved her job as an assistant for many different departments. She truly loved working with Seniors and especially enjoyed helping with many activities such as calling Bingo and throwing Happy Hours and parties for the residents. Linda's deep love of music was strongly apparent, and she could be heard constantly humming or singing no matter where she was or what she was doing. Others were in awe of her beautiful and amazing singing voice, and she was often asked to sing for special occasions. Her husband, John, also had a wonderful voice and they sang together for many special events throughout their lives. Linda's love of music and singing will always be carried on through her children and grandchildren. Linda is preceded in death by her husband of 45 years, John Bramwell Castleton Sr. and is survived by her two children, Jennifer Castleton Hillard and John Bramwell Castleton, Jr., her three lovely grandchildren, Megan "Max" Crystal Hillard, Nathaniel Grage Castleton and John "Jack" Sandvik Castleton, as well as her sister Kay Funes and many nieces and nephews. Linda touched the hearts of many and she will be greatly missed by family and friends. [Legacy, May 20, 2023]
