Kenneth Lee Tuddenham

August 10, 1950 — November 6, 2017

Kenneth Lee Tuddenham was born August 10, 1950 in Logan, Utah to Ruby Godfrey Tuddenham and J. Rolfe Tuddenham, the last of five children. He died on Monday, November 6, 2017 at his home in Salt Lake City.

At the age of six his family moved from Logan to Nibley where his father farmed and started a dairy. He attended schools in Cache Valley and graduated from Sky View High School in 1968. He then attended Utah State University and graduated with a degree in Library Science. Soon after graduation he moved to Salt Lake and started his career at the University of Utah as a Research Librarian and worked there until his retirement.

Ken struggled with many health challenges throughout most of his life and was always looking for ways to improve his health. He freely shared his knowledge and experience with others. Even during his most challenging times, Ken maintained a cheerful attitude and was always willing to do whatever he could to help others. He offered wonderful support to his family and took such good care of his mom and dad in their later years. He had a very special relationship with his sweet sister, Arlene. She was a ray of sunshine in his life. They talked daily on the phone for over 17 years. He was also like a son to his Aunt Corrine and Uncle Andrew Heggie and to Uncle Evan and Aunt Kaye Godfrey. His many cousins, nieces and nephews will really miss Uncle Ken.

Ken was a member of the church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints and had a strong testimony of the gospel. His warm personality and quick wit will be missed so much by all who knew him. A special thanks to Dr. L Scott Jewkes, Tammy Harris, and his other healthcare providers and friends.

He is preceded in death by his parents and sister, Phyllis. He is survived by his sister, Arlene (John) Croft of Granite Bay, CA. brother Lyle (JoAnn) Tuddenham, and Jay (Peggy) Tuddenham of Nibley.

Graveside services are under the direction of Allen-Hall Mortuary and will be held at noon on Saturday November 11, at the Logan City Cemetery with Bishop Thayne Michelson of the Nibley 3rd Ward presiding. At Ken’s request, there will not be a viewing or formal funeral services.
