FERRON- Curtis C. “Pooh” Caldwell left this world suddenly and joined many loving family members on Sept. 9, 2013 in Orem, Utah. He was born May 2, 1957 in St. George, Utah to Pat E. and Laverde Cannon Caldwell. He married the love of his life, Carla Wild, on Nov. 7, 1987 in Ferron, Utah.
His family moved to Ferron when he was in the first grade, and he spent the rest of his life there. After high school, he began working in the coal mines where he made many friends. He took great pride in being a coal miner and was a proud member of the UMWA.
He loved working in his yard, watching the grass grow and raising vegetables to share with family and friends. He was an avid golfer and waited patiently for that phone call every Sunday morning. Most of all, he loved spending time with his family, especially while camping, riding four-wheelers, and his back yard BBQ’s.
He is survived by his wife, Carla; children: Jessica Caldwell, Ferron, Willie McCourt, Ferron, and Tiffany (Russ) Bloomer, Price; grandchildren: Sabrina, Dezmon, Liam, Cassidy, Gabriel; brother/sisters-in-law: Don (Star) Wild, Ann (Ken) Carroll, Sharlene (Jon) Chiaretta, Suzy (Les) Mortensen; and many nieces and nephews.
