He was surrounded by his loving family until the very end. Richard was born at the Park City Miner’s Hospital on Nov. 11, 1947. He was raised and received quite an education in Old Town Park City. He enjoyed everything those mountains had to offer: hiking, fishing, hunting or just hanging out with his family and friends. He graduated from Park High in 1966, where he excelled in academics and in sports, even mastering the art of his “head fake” to the dismay of most of his basketball opponents. Richard attended the University of Utah and later transferred to Southern Utah University to play football where he graduated with an accounting degree in 1971. That same year, Richard met Mary Carter and they were married (later divorced). Together they had three exceptional children, who brought much joy, delight and purpose to Richard’s life. He excelled at his career in the insurance industry where he earned many top national awards. At the early age of 38, Richard was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis and the disease progressed rapidly. Even through his health struggles, Richard made sure his faith and spirit remained strong. He lived vicariously through his children and grandchildren, and he taught each of them many of life’s lessons about strength, hope, love, coping with adversity, and the power of a smile. People from all walks of life were drawn to Richard and he made many long-lasting friendships through the years. You know who you are. Richard always looked forward to your visits, and he valued your companionship and support. Richard loved sports of all kinds and was an avid University of Utah fan. He enjoyed nothing more than a stimulating game of cards, whether beating the house at blackjack, or a friendly game of cribbage and other games with his family and friends. Although he liked to win, he got just as much joy from pulling a fast one on you if he could get away with it. Survived by his children: Barbara (Matthew) Rodriguez, Leon (Tiffany) Uriarte and Jonathan (Melanie) Uriarte. He also leaves behind six grandchildren: Saige, Dominic, Tess, Tomas, Sophia Richard Leon Uriarte and Gavin. He is also survived by his sister, Sherrie Prince; brothers Michael Uriarte and Howard Uriarte; and step-mother Thelma Uriarte. He is preceded in death by his mother and father, as well as his grandparents and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. The family wishes to express its gratitude for the many caregivers for their tender treatment and devotion to Richard that sustained him over the years. In lieu of flowers, please consider a donation to the National MS Society or another charity of your choice. For details on memorial services, please visit: www.Larkincares.com David O. Wadman July 22, 1943 - April 18, 2017 David Wadman, a Park City resident for 21 years, was born in Chicago and raised in Southern California. He graduated from UCLA and the USC Marshall School of Business and pursued a successful career in the new and burgeoning computer industry. David met his wife of 35 years, Libby (Tuddenham), through their respective careers. They and their two young daughters, Alexandra (Los Angeles) and Whitney (New York City), moved from Manhattan Beach, California, to Park City in 1996. David is remembered for his love of travel and food, and for his flawless sense of style. He contributed to the community through his participation in the Park City Film Series and the Sundance Film Festival. He ran the Film Series concessions booth at the Santy Auditorium until a series of ever more severe strokes robbed him of the ability to participate and ultimately ended his life. David is survived by his wife and daughters. He continues to serve his community by participating in the University of Utah anatomy and neurobiology cadaver program. An open house in celebration of David will be held at the family home in Park City, Saturday, June 10, from noon to 6 p.m. The family would like to thank the Neurology Department at the University of Utah, and employees at Care Works Hospice for the amazing care they provided David.

Robert Keith Hilder May 15, 1949 - April 26, 2017 Robert Keith Hilder passed from this life peacefully in the presence of loving family on April 26 from complications while undergoing chemotherapy treatment for esophageal cancer. Robert liked to say he felt privileged to have four distinct careers in the law. Initially, he worked at the law firm of Christensen & Jensen, practicing civil litigation, eventually being named managing director of the law firm. He was appointed to the 3rd Judicial District Court on Aug. 1, 1995, by Gov. Michael O. Leavitt, where he heard cases for 16 years and served as presiding judge of the 3rd District. He was loved by many, being called “one of the kindest, most compassionate, gentlest people to sit on the bench.” And in 2010, the Utah State Bar awarded Robert with the Judge of the Year award. Following his retirement in 2011, he established a private practice where he did extensive mediation and arbitration work, completing almost 800 arbitrations and mediations in just over four years. Most recently, he was elected Summit County Attorney, where he served until his death. Robert was born May 15, 1949, in Sydney, Australia. His diverse educational and socioeconomic status enabled him to bring a rare perspective to the four careers he had in law. Prior to emigrating to the U.S. and Utah, he worked as a jackeroo, cattle hide grader, police cadet, miner, pipeline construction worker, surveyor’s chainman, barman, bouncer and LDS missionary. Before entering law school, where he was senior editor of Law Review and a member of the Moot Court Society, he earned a GED and completed a Bachelor of Science in Political Science at the University of Utah, graduating Phi Beta Kappa and magna cum laude while working as a day laborer in warehouses, unloading rail cars. He also worked the grave-yard shift at 7-Eleven. Robert’s compassion and genuine love of humanity was felt by many. He claimed there wasn’t a person he met from whom he couldn’t learn something. His view from his courtroom window, which looked out onto the location where he worked as a security guard while obtaining his legal education, was a reminder of the importance of humanness in rendering judgment on others. He is survived by his wife Jan McCosh Hilder (Park City); his children Ross Alan Hilder (Las Vegas), Robert Keith Hilder Jr. (Salt Lake City), Daniel Knight Hilder (Salt Lake City), John Dawson Hilder (Las Vegas), Allison Naomi Bryant (Eagle Mountain), Thomas Ryan McCosh (Salt Lake City) and Nathaniel Ian McCosh (Salt Lake City); his son and daughter-inlaw, Jonathan Whitney Bryant (Salt Lake City) and Laurel Louise Baeder (Salt Lake City); his beautiful grandchildren, Carter Robert Bryant, Emersen Whitney Bryant, Hayden Naomi Bryant and Cecelia Louise Baeder-McCosh; mother Naomi Dunn (Sydney, Australia) and his sister, Marilyn Hilder (New Jersey); and his sister-in-law, Frances Hilder (Hobart in Tasmania, Australia). An informal memorial gathering was held on Wednesday, May 3, at noon in his old courtroom, N-42 in the Matheson Robert Keith Hilder Courthouse located at 450 S. State St. A celebration of his life will be held in the Jim Santy Auditorium at the Park City Library on his birthday, May 15, at noon. Immediately following the service, a tree will be planted in his memory and those interested in participating are invited to bring a shovel and meet on the library lawn. Should friends desire, they are welcome to make contributions for “Judge Hilder’s Bench” (a memorial bench and tree). Contributions are accepted at any Wells Fargo window to the Robert Hilder Memorial Fund, account No. 9939429156, or by mail to: Wells Fargo, 1400 Kearns Blvd., Ste. 100, Park City, UT 84060.
