Kent Randall Linton

July 24, 1947 - September 27, 2019

Kent Randall Linton (1947-2019) Kent Randall Linton, beloved husband, dad, grandpa, brother, and friend passed away on Friday, September 27, 2019. Kent was born to Denton and Viola Linton on July 24, 1947, as the fourth of five sons. He graduated from Box Elder High School in Brigham City and received his Bachelor of Science degree in Administrative Systems from Utah State University. Kent married Christine Lauritzen on September 10, 1969 in the Salt Lake Temple. Together they raised 7 remarkable and talented children. Kent’s work experiences included program managing and technical writing assignments, movie and music creation, military service, work with the Hurricane Hunters and concluded with a support assignment at the Kennedy Space Center for NASA. Kent was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and dedicated much of his time in Church service which included a full-time mission to the Great Lakes, bishop, high counselor, ward and stake executive secretaries, High Priest group leadership and many music assignments. Kent and Christine served a three year mission at the Church History Library documenting the history of the Church in nations around the world. Kent loved to teach and many benefited from the lessons he taught in Sunday School and Priesthood. Kent was a student of the scriptures and latter-day prophets. He gained a wealth of knowledge through dedicated study and prayer. He also loved the families he faithfully visited as home teacher and ministering brother. Kent’s passions were music, writing, his yard (especially flowers and fruit trees), and his family. Kent is survived by his wife, Christine and their seven children, Lisa (Mark Lowe), Laurie (Kyle Larson), Liz, Trevor (Anna), Lindsey, Spencer (Brittany), Tanner and seventeen grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his parents, Denton and Viola Linton and two brothers, Neil and Merle.
