Charles Harvey McConnell
1917 ~ 2007
Charles Harvey McConnell passed from this life at 8:20 a.m. on 18 August 2007 at the age of 90. He is now re-engineering the pillars of heaven and taking pictures of the project.
Born in Garden Grove, CA on 8 July 1917, he grew up in Salt Lake and studied engineering at the U of U. He married Marjorie Wallace, also of Salt Lake City on June 26, 1942. They moved to West Seattle in 1950, where he built the home in which he and Marjorie reared their family, and which is still a haven to family, friends and dogs. His beloved Marjorie passed away a year ago after 64 years together.
They are survived by their four children, Elen Wright, Charles Jr., Heather Kersh, and Leti Baar. He had 14 grandchildren and 29 great grandchildren.
No words describe the magnificence of his life and the magnitude of his influence upon those fortunate enough to know him. At his request there will be a family service only in Salt Lake City.
