Derek Lee Monsen

Derek Lee Monsen (Bubba) passed away unexpectedly on January 30, 2016 due to complications from pneumonia. He was born September 25, 1982 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Lee Blake and Cynthia Monsen.

Derek had a special sense about him, very sensitive and giving. He cared about his family and at any lengths he would defend them anyway he could. He was a happy-go-luck kind of guy and always had a silly grin on his face.

Derek graduated from Valley High School. Derek had many talents working in the construction field. He loved being outside hunting and camping along with his family. He was an avid Dallas Cowboy fan from a young age.

Derek was survived by his parents Lee & Cindy Monsen and siblings Blake and Kylie Monsen. Britt Robinson was his love of his life, Christoper Robinson was like a son to him. Davin, Corbin and Caden Monsen were his sons; Britt's parents, Michael and Stacy Robinson; grandparents, uncles, aunts and many cousins. Preceded in death were his great grandparents, Grandma Ontiveros and a great uncle.

At this time we would like to express our appreciation and gratitude to the medical team at the Shock Treatment ICU: Dr. Brown, Dr. Lanspa, Dr. Dean, Dr. Skanchy; RN Team: Patrick, Normandy, Lisa L. Adam; and RT Team: Brad and Lori C.

Funeral services will be held Saturday, Feb. 6, at 12 noon at the Cobble Creek Stake Center, 8150 Grizzly Way, West Jordan, Utah. There will be a viewing at the church Friday Feb 5, 2016 from 6-8 pm and again Saturday from 10:45-11:45 am. Interment, Midvale City Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, you can donate funds to the Derek Monsen Memorial Account at any Mountain American Credit Union, for his children.

We love you Bubba, we will see you again!
