Willard Lee Goddard, 75, passed away July 20, 2013 in St. George, Utah, after complications following a successful battle with cancer. He was born May 4, 1938 in Ogden, Utah to Willard Faye Goddard and Catherine Margaret Harmon. He married Janetta Loftis on July 14, 1983 in the Oakland California LDS Temple.

Lee was born and raised in Ogden, Utah. Lee served proudly in the Airborne Infantry of the U.S. Army. Following his honorable discharge from the U.S. Army, he spent his career as a union carpenter and worked his way up to become project superintendent, working on major military construction projects.

He is preceded in death by his parents.
