Alan "Al" Latimer

Alan "Al" Latimer has checked out. He died Monday, December 22, 2025, at home in Riverton, Utah, surrounded by those he loved. Just like during his entire life, he didn't want anyone to wake him up.

Alan was born April 29, 1948, much to the chagrin of his older brother Larry, who really didn't want any competition. But Alan came out and immediately began a life of being competitive at everything. Alan's parents, Earl S. and Bernice Atkinson Latimer, his brother Larry, and sisters Sheri and Penny lived in Salt Lake, Fort Union, Crescent, and Sandy.

Alan graduated from Jordan High School in 1966 as the Utah State champion in his weight class in wrestling. Alan had the attitude that if he was going to do anything, he had to be the best at it. No compromising!

Alan married the love of his life, Sharron Wright, in 1969. Alan and Sharron were the proud parents of Dustin, Zane, and Cameron.

Alan followed his dad, uncle, and grandfather into the electric sign industry as an installer and then a sign salesman. He excelled at sales-almost always leading in prospecting and annual sales volume.

Among the loves of his life were Sharron; hunting; fishing; Dustin, Kristin, Emily; camping; Zane, Shawn, Mercadeez, Tori, Lacey, Ally; snowmobiling; Cameron; golfing; visiting ghost towns; four-wheeling; exploring; finding and creating challenges; sleeping in; winning arguments; and not being on time.

Alan was late to so many events, parties, meetings, family gatherings, and almost everything else that family members and friends often referred to him as the "Late Alan Latimer." We are pretty sure he's not at all upset that it's finally really true and that it will be part of his legacy.

A visitation will be held at Larkin Sunset Gardens (1950 E. Dimple Dell Road [10600 South]) on Monday, December 29, 2025, at 11:00–11:45. Following the visitation, a graveside service will begin at 12:00.
