TORREY - Lawrence S. Bagley, 81, died in Salt Lake City at the University Hospital on July 19, 2022. Just as in one of Larry's favorite John Lennon quotes, he died of death, which killed him.
Larry was born in 1941 to Ames and Lucy Bagley. He had many happy memories of growing up on Sheridan Road in Salt Lake City. His life took an interesting turn when he and his wife, Cathy moved to Torrey, Utah in 1971 with their first son, Zachary. A second son, Aaron, was born the next year. Living in Torrey was an altogether different lifestyle for Larry, and he loved it. Growing corn, and his garden were some of his favorite parts of life in Torrey. Larry enjoyed showing his kids and grandkids why he loved Torrey. Boulder Mountain was one of Larry's favorite places, where fishing became a family tradition.
Larry was a livestock buyer for many years. He bought lambs and calves for packers and feeders. He treasured the experiences and the people he met in Utah, Colorado, and the Navajo Reservation.
After spending time with Doug Snow and Tony Smith in Torrey, Larry learned much about art and found a new passion. He opened The Torrey Gallery in 1997 and enjoyed working with artists and everyone who came in the door. The gallery also provided a way for him to sell Navajo rugs that he came to appreciate from his days in Navajoland.
In time, his health failed, and he spent the past few years mentoring Cathy about art, Navajo rugs, and the gallery business. He had a profound curiosity about the universe and read for hours and hours, with great pleasure, about the latest theories and discoveries. He was sad to leave this world, but he said he had had an interesting life. He was very proud of his sons and grandchildren. He loved his wife and family dearly.
Larry is survived by his wife, Cathy; his sons, Zachary (Laura Seitz) of Salt Lake City; Aaron (Kat) of Centennial, Colorado; and Joe Andreini of Salt Lake City. He leaves behind his wonderful grandchildren, Zander, Dylan, Maya, and Ryder. His family loved him very much.
We want to thank the University Hospital, Dr. Tom Miller, Dr. Jon Boltax, Grace Woo, and all the nurses and caregivers who were so kind to Larry.
A private family memorial will be held later to take in some art in Larry's memory.
