Trevor James Wardle
1988-2009
Trevor James Wardle our loving son and courageous brother passed away in a terrible car accident in the early morning hours on October 27, 2009.
Trevor's strong mind and loving heart will forever be missed, but never forgotten. His courage and strength will always be an inspiration to us as we go forward without him. Though he has left us, his memory will live on.
Trevor James was born May 5, 1988 in Provo, UT to James Weldon and Sue Ann Garbett Wardle. In his younger years he was known as TJ and was blessed with beautiful red curly hair. As he grew, his honest wit blessed the lives of those around him. His imagination was one of a kind as he spent countless hours doing his own thing. He idolized his father and always wanted to be like him. Like his father he enjoyed history and learning about the leaders of the past. He always found time for his mother, even as he got older you would often find them cuddling together. He loved sports and found happiness in playing and watching them.
As he got older, life got harder to live and enjoy. He was diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder which was hard for him to understand. He would often ask "Why can't I be normal? I don't understand." He spent his closing years finding happiness in the simple things. He loved to eat dinner at his grandparents and loved to spend time with his sister Rachelle. They will forever have a special bond as they helped each other endure the trials of life. He had a special love and compassion for his younger cousins and always cherished the day when he would become an Uncle. He will continue to show that love even more now on the other side as his mortal restrictions are lifted. He will forever be loved and missed.
Trevor is survived by his parents J. Weldon and Sue, his older brother Dustin (Monica), his older sisters Amber (Jared), and Rachelle, his Grandparents Dave and Ann Garbett and Ileen Wardle, and other countless family members who made his life so special.
Funeral Services for Trevor were held Saturday, October 31, 2009, at 11:00 a.m. at the Nephi North Stake Center, 1125 North 400 East. Interment Eureka City Cemetery.
