SALT LAKE CITY — If you didn't know who William "Will" Wing Louie was, there's a good chance you've come across and appreciated his work across the Wasatch Front.
Louie, an award-winning and groundbreaking Utah architect behind some of the state's more recognizable churches, libraries, schools, businesses and even a portion of Salt Lake City's International Peace Gardens, died last week. He was 98.
"He was a very community-oriented man," his daughter, Lisa Louie, said. "I mean he was involved when he was young in pretty much everything from the community."
Born to Wing Louie and May Szto Shee in Ogden on Jan. 18, 1923, William Louie was one of 10 children in a family growing up in northern Utah. His parents had previously immigrated from Canton, China. He attended school in Ogden, later recalling in a 2018 interview that he found a passion for art and civil engineering classes.
