Our hearts are broken that we lost Lance in a tragic boating accident at Flaming Gorge--his safe, happy haven--Saturday, June 23, 2018. Lance was the most patient, kind-hearted man who had the motto of "Live it 'Live.'" He was born on May 12, 1970 in Ogden, Utah and raised by loving parents, Earl and Anne Malan Heninger. He was a lifelong resident of North Ogden. He proudly graduated from Weber High School in 1988 where he lettered in soccer, football, and wrestling.

He met the love of his life, Kristi Worrall, at a young age of 13 and they are the proud parents of Ruger (5) and Colt (3). Lance was previously married to Gina Whittaker for 10 years.

He worked at Anglers Inn 30+ years ago. The past 14 years, he's been at Anglers Den in Roy, Utah. Lance valued his coworkers and customers who were like extended family. He was always outdoors. Lance was a master fisherman whom everyone looked to for advice. He loved to hunt ducks, pheasants, deer, elk, etc. He learned the skill of taxidermy from his father. He had many friends who loved to hunt and fish with him in Idaho, Utah and Wyoming, especially Bear Lake and Flaming Gorge.

Lance and Kristi enjoyed working in their immaculate yard and garden. He had many interests, but most of all he passionately loved his family. They always came first. He passed skills he learned from his father down to his sons.

Lance is survived by Kristi; their children: Ruger Earl Heninger and Colt Lance Heninger; stepchildren: Houston Belarde, Dani Rae Bowers, and Rodney Bowers; his mother, Anne Heninger; sister, Lisa (Dirk) Gunderson; niece Ashley (Laine) and Rylie Anderson; and nephew Broc (Hannah) Gunderson. He is preceded in death by his father, Earl H. Heninger and his grandparents: Earl S. and Juanita Heninger and Fred W. and Mildred Malan.

In lieu of flowers, an account has been set up at America First Credit Union for their boys, account #9103292.
