Wyatt Austen Kinne's Obituary
Wyatt Austen Kinne lost his battle with hopelessness in Gunnison Utah February 14th, 2026. He was born in Ogden, Utah March 31st, 1994 to John Lance Kinne and Melissa June Stoops.
He graduated with a GED from the A.T.C. in Ogden. He apprenticed to learn to install overhead sprinkler systems to extinguish fires. He took pride in his work and had much success. He Loved the outdoors, 4 wheeling and target shooting. He had a cute muffled laugh that was so contagious.
While he lived with his Grandma Kinne, he never failed to express his gratitude for all his favorite food on the table and that she would happily endure the TV programs that he liked to watch (LOL). One funny thing about Wyatt is that he would check the refrigerator to make sure there was milk. He would always say that he was grateful to feel loved, welcome and safe.
Wyatt is survived by his Mother, Melissa June Stoops, His Grandmothers Sharon Kinne and Kathy Stoops. He is also survived by half-brother Nik Bielaczyc, half-sister Denver Bielaczyc, half-brother Noble Porter, half-sister River Rose, aunts Savannah Hinds and Moriah Shaw and Uncle Macen Kinne, aunts Elicia Clegg and Jessica as well as many many cousins and extended family members.
He is preceded in death by his father John Lance Kinne and Grandfathers John Roger Kinne and Merrill Stoops, uncle Adam Roger Kinne, aunt Allison Stoops, uncle Aaron Stoops, aunt Caylee McSarland.
So many friends and coworkers have been expressing the love for him. Friends and Family can gather to talk and enjoy a meal on March 21st, 2026 from 1pm-3pm at the Prairie Crossing ward Relief Society room and cultural hall at 3939 W 4000 S, West Haven, Utah.
