Floyd Robert Breeze of Farmington, Ut passed away on September 25, 2023. He was born April 9, 1933 to Claude Robert Breeze and Edna Matilda Floyd Breeze in Salt Lake City, Utah. He graduated from South High School in 1951 and the University of Utah in 1957, after serving a mission an LDS mission to the Southern States. He served two years active duty with the Army Reserve and spent his entire career with the Federal Government in budget and finance. Work took him to Saipan, Mariana Islands, Washington DC, and Denver, CO. He retired from the Bureau of Reclamation in 1987 and then did consulting work on a large irrigation project in Sri Lanka.

On March 25, 1957, Floyd married Janet May Walkenhorst (Jensen) in the Salt Lake Temple and they were blessed with six children. Floyd served the Lord wherever he went, and especially enjoyed being an ordinance worker in both the Washington DC and Bountiful Utah Temples.
