Most Utahns knew Norm Bangerter only as the stateâs 13th governor. But mourners focused on his private life Saturday, praising him as a hard-working builder, a caring church leader and the loving patriarch of a large family. All seven of the children he raised spoke at his funeral Saturday, as did his widow, in a simple, typical LDS Church funeral. His son, Jordan, said the family was offered the chance for the former governor â who died Tuesday at age 82 â to lie in state at the Capitol.
