Earl Everett Green, son of Edward Everett Green and Lulu Mabel Spurgeon Green died

surrounded by his children Saturday, November 15, 2025. Earl was born January 26,

1944, in Ogden, Utah. He attended Weber State College and graduated from the

University of Utah in 1970 with a degree in Sociology, Urban Studies. He married Lois

Kent October 8, 1970, in the Salt Lake Temple. Together they had six children.

Throughout his life, Earl operated a general contracting business beginning in 1973,

worked for Home Depot, and taught Building Construction and Social Studies for the

Weber School District, retiring in 2001. He then taught Technology for the Davis School

District and classes for Clearfield Job Corps. Throughout his teaching, he continued to

do small contracting jobs until May 2018. Earl was dedicated to his teaching career

and cared deeply for his students. He taught his home construction students the value

of work and taught them skills that helped many create successful companies in the

construction industry. Many of his students kept in contact with him well after they

graduated high school, whether he gave them jobs, attended their mission farewells,

went to their weddings or checked in to see how things were going in their lives.

Earl is a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He served a

mission to Ireland and has held many different callings throughout his life. One of Earl's

biggest desires was to have a family and lots of kids. Earl strived to be the best dad

and grandfather he could be. He tried to be involved in his family's lives as much as

was possible and never missed a chance to brag about his four boys. He was

especially close to his two daughters and their children. They cherish every moment

they had with him. He was able to return to his mission home last year in Ireland, which

was a highlight of his life. We will forever cherish the memories made with him and the

laughs we had from his sense of humor. The funny faces, cards, texts, and visits will be

in our memories for a lifetime. We love you Dad and will miss you more than you know.

Earl is survived by his wife, Lois, his children, Tracie (Randall) Wilde, Alan Green, Sean

(Holli) Green, Troy (Victoria) Green, Kevin (Corinne) Green, and Erin (Jared) Clawson,

his 21 grandchildren, 2 great grandchildren and his little dog BJ.

Earl felt that leaving this mortal life ought to be a time of celebration. Not a time for grief

and sorrow. He was very determined that his wishes for a cremation be honored and

that he be buried with his beloved dog, Bracken who died November 8, 2013. A private

family viewing will be held at Myer's Mortuary in Ogden, Utah, Saturday, November 22,

2025. In lieu of flowers, Earl has requested donations be made to the Church of Jesus

Christ of Latter-Day Saints Missionary Fund.
