Bryce R. Floch, 41

Bryce Roger Floch of Kalispell, passed away Nov. 16, 2014, of natural causes, at the age of 41.

He was born May 10, 1973, in Kellogg, Idaho, and adopted at birth by Gary and Deanna Floch. He attended school in Lewiston, graduating in 1991. He participated in several sports growing up, including wrestling and soccer. He also took part in the Mr. LHS competition, and was a member of the mock trial team his junior and senior years, winning state competitions in Boise, Idaho. He graduated from the University of Idaho in 1996 with bachelor of science degrees in criminal justice and sociology and was on the dean’s list. He worked for the Fund for Public Interest for two years and made application to several law schools, finally going to the University of Montana, where he graduated in 2001 with his law degree.

He married Angela Jacobs in 2001 after both graduated from law school. He worked for law firms in Missoula and Kalispell before starting his own law firm in 2011. He was later divorced.

Bryce loved his children, Dane and Ava. He had good friends from high school and college who went camping and fly fishing every year after college. He enjoyed skiing — especially with Dane — fly fishing, camping and whitewater rafting.

He is survived by his two children, Dane, 7, and Ava, 3; parents, Gary and Deanna Floch, of Lewiston; grandmother, ElmoEtta Floch, of Clarkston, Wash.; biological mother, Jone Krulitz, of Wallace, Idaho; biological father, Pat Dickinson, of Florida; sisters, Lisa Byers of Lewiston, Jessica Krulitz of Pinehurst, Idaho, and Kirsten Voorhees of Coeur d’Alene, Idaho; and brother, Jerrod Krulitz, of San Diego. He has many aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews and friends — too many to count.

A celebration of life will be held from 7 to 9 p.m. Friday in Kalispell, upstairs at 118 South Main St., above Sassafras. A second celebration of life will be held from 3 to 5 p.m. Dec. 13 at the Boat Club in Clarkston, Highway 129 and Post Lane.
