Holly Badham-VanKomen

May 15, 1951 - October 27, 2020

On Tuesday, October 27, 2020, Holly Badham-VanKomen, beloved wife of Leo VanKomen, passed away peacefully at Huntsman Cancer Institute after a hard-fought struggle from complications of a trial ovarian cancer treatment. Holly was born on a beautiful spring day of 1951 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Lynn and Carol Badham and was the second of six children. She was raised in Bountiful, Utah and is a graduate of the Bountiful High School Class of ’69. Her continued education focused on legal assistant studies, accounting, and financial management. Holly married Leo, the love of her life, and they enjoyed 38 years together. When she wasn’t working you would find them on their boat fishing, jet skiing, 4 wheeling around the mountains in Fruitland on their ATV or cheering a Ute’s football game. Holly played hard and worked passionately. She was a successful businesswoman and partner in several businesses. Her expertise in understanding the finance industry helped many pursue their business dreams. Holly was preceded in death by her beloved dogs Missy and Cody, Brother-in-law, Alan Keddington, Grandparents and many Aunts and Uncles. She is survived by her husband Leo, stepsons, Mark and Luke VanKomen, her parents Lynn and Carol Badham, her siblings, Julie Keddington, Gail (Lenny) Goodwin, Tina (Sorob) Pourtahmassebi, Joyce (David) Montgomery, Dave (Marilyn) Badham and 39 nephews and nieces who will miss her dearly. Holly was greatly loved and will be sorely missed. Knowing of the joyful reunion with family and friends on the other side brings those of us left behind much comfort. Due to the COVID19 Pandemic, a Wake honoring Holly will be held at a later date when circumstances allow. In the meantime, a private memorial service and visitation for family and close friends will be held Saturday, November 7, 2020 at 11:15 a.m. at 3550 South 100 East, Bountiful, Utah. The visitation will be held prior to the service from 10 to 11 a.m. Due to COVID 19 the services will be streamed on-line for those interested in joining by video.
