Heather Slowik Obituary (1971 - 2018)

Heather Dawn Heaps-Slowik returned home on Thursday, September 27, 2018. She was born on March 17, 1971 to Sherrel Ray Heaps Jr. and Donna Gay Gwynn. Heather was a ray of light in the lives of everyone she met. She was a loving and devoted wife, daughter, sister, mother, and grandmother. Heather was the perfect example of loving acceptance and always made everyone she met feel welcome. Often paying for the car behind her in the drive-thru, her nature was always to pay it forward. Heather was a great lover of animals and it was her dream to open an animal sanctuary. Heather was preceded in death by her father Sherrel Ray Heaps Jr. She is survived by her husband Tom Slowik, daughters; Sydney Slowik (Dan Bradshaw), Taylor Davis, Crystan Taylor, son; Elder Terry Taylor, mother; Donna Gwynn, step-father; Riley Gwynn, sister; Shannon Heaps, brother; Shane Heaps (Tasha Haws), and grandson Asher Bradshaw (and her “goatie Boys” Walter and Chick). Memorial services will be held on Saturday, October 6, 2018 at 1:00 PM. Prior visitation will be from 11:00 AM – 12:45 PM at the Stockton 1st ward building, located at 405 N Connor Ave, Stockton, Utah. Following the service, internment will be at the Tooele City Cemetery. To send flowers or a memorial gift to the family of Heather Dawn Heaps-Slowik please visit our Sympathy Store.
