Bert Singleton Obituary

Bert E. Singleton
1952 ~ 2014
Born February 29, 1952 in Magna, Utah to Delores Holland and Bert M. Singleton. Bert died tragically September 17, 2014 while on a photography expedition in Logan Canyon. As a lover of nature, family, helping others, and animals of all kinds, he will never be forgotten. Bert is survived by his step-father, Riley (Lola) Cannon; sister, Sherrie Singleton; sister and brother-in-law, Sandy & Jamie McDonald; nephews, Shance Smith and Colten McDonald; and niece, Lacey McDonald. He was preceded in death by his parents.
From sister, Sandy: "He gave me many things throughout my life. My love of rock and Roll, learning how animals enrich our lives, and the importance of helping others and being compassionate. I think these qualities came from our lovely mother. He had a heart as big as the moon. I will think of you every day and the laughter that you gave to all of us. Miss you bro."
This is "Big Sis": "What am I going to do without you. All my love, RIP little brother."
A memorial service will be held at a later date. Online condolences: www.peelfuneralhome.com

My family sends there sympathy Sandy. One of the benefits of being your friend was to know and spend time with your wonderful brother. He loved you all so much.

When I think of Bert the 80's come to mind. I remember him in the 80's playing his guitar to Eric Clapton, playing his harmonica, his mischievous laugh when he was being a jokester and the sparkle in his eyes that showed his zest for life.

Bert was a pleasure to know. The world is a better place because Bert was in it. My warmest thoughts are with all of you during this difficult time

Love, Kelli
