Tremonton - Our cherished husband, father and grandfather, Floyd Hideo Kaneko, died on Monday, August 2, 2004, at the age of 85. He was born on March 2, 1919, to Hana Fujiwara and Ichimatsu Kaneko in Clearfield, Utah. He grew up on a farm in Gunnison, Utah, learning the farming trade that he loved.
Floyd Sige married Leona Tanaka on April 2, 1949 in Tremonton, which became their home for the next 55 years. They enjoyed working together and were known for their delicious tomatoes and other vegetables. Floyd, known for his hard work ethic, also worked for Schreiber Foods and retired from there after 12 years. He had an active life with family and friends that included playing basketball, bowling for trophies, shooting pool and catching the big fish.
