Obituary

Marvon Hugh Holdaway, age 74, passed away peacefully on May 10, 2026, at his home in Sandy, Utah.

He was born on October 10, 1951, to Marvon Holdaway and Audine Clark Holdaway. A dedicated and hard-working man, Marvon began his career at the Salt Lake Chevron Refinery in 1983, where he provided 28 years of loyal service before his well-deserved retirement.

Marvon’s greatest legacy is the family he leaves behind. He is survived by his beloved wife Ilene Holdaway, his sons Wade & Cody Holdaway, his four grandchildren Zackary, Wade Jr., Ben, and Ivy-Jane, and his brothers Duane Holdaway, Steve Holdaway, and Randy Holdaway.

He was preceded in death by his parents, Marvon and Audine, and his sister, Brenda Holdaway.

A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date to honor Marvon's memory and the time shared with those he loved.

We will always remember my uncle Marvy!!!! I know how much he loved his family and he is going to be missed by so many. He always was such a great uncle to his nieces and he is going to be greatly missed. Rip Uncle Marvy until we meet again 🙏🙏❤️❤️

My father in law was always a teaser, and so funny, I definitely think that is where Cody got some of his sense of humor! He was a great grandpa to my kids, and we be greatly missed ❤️

I Remember watching Wade and his Dad doing tae kwon do at Wade’s studio. So interesting watching and learning about the courtesies and interactions between father and son. May he rest in peace.

Over the years that Marv & I have been retired I have thought of him often but never had contact, which I regret. I knew he was ill. We worked together for 28 years & had many laughs. My condolences to to the family & especially his son Cody who also works for Chevron. Goodbye Marv. I'll probably meet you later.

I always enjoy seeing Marv in the winter come to work in his shorts with his heavy socks. He made me feel warmer. I enjoyed the years of working with him. Prayers for his family!
