Austin Burningham Obituary
He loved life and lived it to the fullest with his fiancé Alexus Dobbins and the many friends by his side. Together, they all created great memories. He worked hard and played harder. Some of his favorite things he liked to do was spend time at his family's cabin, snowmobile, shoot guns, and race around in Gladys and Lila (his trucks). He loved music, movies, REAL games with his RSL family, and the Buccaneers. But most of all, he loved his family. He had a heart of gold and would literally give the shirt off his back.
He graduated from Bountiful High School in 2011 and he continued his education at CH Spencer as a Machinist. He played football for 10 years and raced snowmobiles with RMSHA, #555.
He is survived by his parents, Scott and Royann, brothers, Morgan (Kara) Burningham and Cody Burningham, sister Whitney (Jake) Lee, several nieces and nephews, fiancé, Alexus ("Ol' lady"), and the Dobbins family. Preceded in death by his Grandpa Jerry, Grandma Kinsey, and Uncle Todd.
Viewing to be held at Russon Mortuary, 295 North Main Street, on Thursday, December 3rd from 6:00-8:00 pm. Graveside services will be on Friday, December 4th 12:00 noon at Lakeview Cemetery, 1640 East Lakeview Drive, Bountiful, Utah. Online guest book at www.russonmortuary.com.

I came upon this obituary while looking at a friends. I don't know your family but wanted to say Go Bucs for Austin. I'm a Browns fan. I'm sure you had a really hard and good day yesterday. I've lost friends and family and know how life goes on around you but you still have that void. Take Care.

Royann, Scott, Whitney, Cody, and Morgan -
I am so sorry for your unimaginable loss. Austin was an amazing person and I feel so blessed to have known him during his far too short time on this earth. Austin taught me about love, country music, the proper way to eat a steak (rare, of course), and so much more about life. He was truly so special and will forever be missed.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time.

So sad for the loss of AB. I knew him mostly as one of the coaches from little league football. He played the game hard. Thoughts and prayers to Scott and Royann and family for their loss.
