Our beloved dad, grandpa, uncle, brother, friend, and coach, Chick Hislop, passed away peacefully on Wednesday,
February 22, 2023 surrounded by his family. Dad was born on November 16,1936 in Ogden, Utah to Curt and Jennie
Hislop. He was the fourth of five children.
Dad attended public schools in Ogden. He graduated from Ben Lomond High School in 1955, Weber Junior
College in 1957, and Utah State in 1959. Dad also received his MS degree from Utah State.
Dad met Dianne Leatham in high school, and they were married and sealed eternally on September 4, 1958 in
the Salt Lake Temple. Mom was dad’s constant support. They worked well together through their 64 plus
years of marriage. Together they were blessed with 5 children: Elynn (Mark) Housley, Lance (Teresa) Hislop,
Jill (Kurt) Gibson, Chris (Sallie) Hislop, Kim (Andy) Meikle, 18 grandchildren, and 2 and ¾
great-grandchildren.
Dad was a very successful coach working for ten years at Ben Lomond High School and 38 years at Weber
State University. Dad excelled at his profession and received much deserved praise for his accomplishments.
Dad was a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He was a firm believer in the Plan
of Salvation and that he would see his loved ones again.
He loved his family a great deal and loved hearing about and seeing the accomplishments of his kids and
grandkids. He and mom provided many vacations for the family along with acquiring a cabin where family
gatherings could take place.
