Obituary-Teddy Kathleen Swartz

 Teddy Kathleen Swartz, a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and businesswoman, passed away peacefully at her home in Garden City, Utah, on September 4, 2024, surrounded by her loving family. She was born on October 22, 1948, in Wickenburg, Arizona, to parents Theodore and Earlene Tibbetts.

Teddy is survived by her beloved husband, David Swartz; her cherished sons, Brent and Brian Gulzow; her daughters-in-law, Liana Gulzow and Leesa Gulzow; her adored grandchildren, Cambryn Tanner, Kyren Gulzow, and Chole Gulzow; and great-grandchildren, Beck and Teddy Joe Tanner. Her siblings, Linda Williams, Charlene Juarez, and Charles Cory, along with her extended family, will carry her memory forward. She also leaves behind her Nieces, Melinda, Heather, Chrystal, and Patti Ann; nephew, Derrick; great-nieces, Ashley, Amber, Keana, Alyssa, Amanda, and Jillian; and great-nephews, Mikey, Justin, Matthew, Weston, and Wyatt. Great-great nephew Nathan.

Teddy was a highly successful businesswoman, running multiple companies throughout her life. Her leadership and work ethic were admired by all who knew her. However, her greatest accomplishment and joy was always her family. She delighted in hosting summer pool gatherings for her grandchildren, great-nieces, and great-nephews, and everyone looked forward to her magical Christmas parties, where she and her husband would entertain as Mr. and Mrs. Claus.

Known for her baking skills, Teddy was always trying new recipes and spreading love through her kitchen creations. Her selfless nature shone brightly, always ensuring that others were well-cared for before enjoying herself. Her laughter, witty jokes, warm hugs, and unwavering love for her family will be deeply missed and forever remembered.

A memorial service was held on September 28, 2024, at 11 am at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 65 Bear Lake Blvd, Garden City, Utah. She was  buried in the Ovid, ID cemetery.

Teddy's legacy of love, kindness, and joy will live on in the hearts of all who knew her.

Bear Lake Watch Initiative

 This event is presented by the partners of the USGS Platform Study: USGS, Utah DEQ, Idaho DEQ, Bear Lake Watch, and PacifiCorp; in collaboration with Utah State University, USFWS Bear Lake Refuge, Bear River Water Users Association, and other agencies and policymakers.

Throughout the West, we need to take a hard look at the sustainability of our natural resources. Many of our resources are managed and operated on century-old infrastructure and social norms. Nowhere is this more evident than at Bear Lake where we continue to allow tons of sediment and nutrients to enter and damage this uniquely oligotrophic lake.

As there is no single agency or department in either Utah or Idaho tasked with fixing this problem, it must be a combined effort. As a modern society, we cannot stand by and do nothing. We have the data. We see the impacts. It is only our actions that are lagging. As partners in the system, we must take the initiative to develop and implement effective measures to reduce sediment and nutrient inflow into Bear Lake before it permanently alters our precious lake.

We thank you in advance for being willing to share your invaluable knowledge, ideas, expertise, and common sense. All will be essential as we work together to develop an innovative plan to reduce the harmful sediment and nutrient inflow into Bear Lake.

It is our collective, societal obligation to see that we don't destroy this precious gem that has served so well. Take the initiative.
