Woodland Hills Mayor and Board Member Remembered at SESD

If one expected to find a somber mood in the boardroom at South Utah Valley Electric Service District (SESD) last Tuesday, August 8, as family and board members came together to remember the late Steve Lauritzen, they would have thought they were in the wrong place.  Laughter was interspersed with fond recollections of the former Woodland Hills mayor and cherished friend in the community.

The event culminated in the bearing of gifts to Mr Lauritzen’s wife Therese and three of the Lauritzen children.
