PRICE-Lux passed away peacefully at home May 14, 2017 at the age of 93.
He was born October 30, 1923 in Winton, Wyoming to Isaac “Iso” Milovich and Milica “Millie” Demich.
Lux grew up surrounded by the hills of Coal City where many different adventures abounded. He honorably served in the US Army Asiatic Pacific Theatre during WWII. Upon his return he worked in the coal mines in Carbon County for 39 years where he became a retired member of the United Mine Workers of America.
Lux was known for his quick wit, strength, fun stories and wisdom in sound advice. He loved gardening and always kept an immaculate yard. Lux enjoyed his nieces and nephews and would take them hunting, fishing and hiking.
Lux married later in life to Laurie Ann Davidson on June 10, 1996 in Price, UT and proceeded to enjoy the next 21 years together.
He loved a good word search or jigsaw puzzle with the grandchildren. The grandkids loved him and called him “Papa” and looked forward to their “tender cocoa” and “dainty dunkers” in the morning and a good episode of “Gunsmoke” with him in the afternoon. He also had a special way with each of his stepchildren and made many memories with each of them.
Special thanks to Symbii Home Health and Hospice. He looked forward to his weekly visits with his wonderful and devoted friend Hilary Gordon who took such great care of him, he loved to hear her laugh as much as he loved to laugh.
He is survived by wife, Laurie; brother, Ted (Charlene) Milovich; numerous nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by parents; brothers, Mike, Nick, John, George, Steve, Pete and Sam; sisters, Mary, Helen, Sophie, Angie and Jelisavka.
