Our loving father, Fred John Medved left this world on September 20, 2017 to join his sweetheart. He was born on January 5, 1927 to Jack and Mary Strakey Medved in Standardville, Utah. Fred was the 8th of 10 children. His family moved to Mapleton, UT in 1929. They lived on 16 acres, each one had to work hard on the farm.

He later married Elma Lucile “Peggy” Petersen June 4, 1962. She brought 4 children to the marriage whom Fred adored as his own. During their life together they traveled, golfed, fished, hunted and enjoyed their family greatly.
