Bicknell, Utah – Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, friend and neighbor, Greg Richard Larsen, age 59, passed away peacefully at his home on September 22, 2022.
Greg was born to John Richard and Myrna Brown Larsen on July 28, 1963 in Richfield, Utah. He was raised in Bicknell with his sisters, JoAnn and Janet. He spent his childhood learning to work hard on the farm, as well as fishing and hunting. He graduated from Wayne High School with the class of 1981. He married Sherree Pace and they had two sons together: Kennedy and Spencer. They later divorced. On April 5, 2003 he married the love of his life, Brooke Scholer, and became dad to four step daughters: Lesa, Jen, Lynnsey, and Whitney. He loved Brooke's daughters like they were his own. Their marriage was later solemnized in the Manti LDS Temple.
Greg and his dad, Richard, were the best of friends. They were farmers and sheepmen together. He was so proud and fulfilled by both. He liked working with wood and couldn't get enough of it. He would often take his family and friends out to cut logs. He loved to teach his grandkids to go on tree hunts at Christmas time to "shoot one down". This remains an enduring memory for all. One of his favorite things to do was fish at Lake Powell. He was an avid hunter and taught his oldest grandsons and granddaughter to deer and elk hunt. They loved every minute of it. Greg was a fantastic gardener and grew the prettiest tomatoes, squash, potatoes, and carrots.
Greg enjoyed everyone he came in contact with, but most enjoyed spending time with and loving the people that were important to him.
Greg is survived by his wife, Brooke C. Larsen; his children: Kennedy G. (Ashlee) Larsen of Central Valley, Spencer R. Larsen of Bicknell, Lesa (Ryan) Best of Ogden, Jen (Matt) McAllister of Lehi, Lynnsey (Bobby) Hansen of Ephraim, Whitney (Mike) Reed of Mount Pleasant; his 2nd mother: Connie Larsen; his sisters: JoAnn (Greg) Overacker of Sonora, California and Janet (Rich) Whitmore of Monroe; 18 grandchildren; 1 great-grandchild.
He is preceded in death by his parents, his grandparents, one great-grandbaby, and his beloved friend: Kenley D. Unsworth.
Funeral services will be held at 1:00 P.M. on Friday, September 30th in the Thurber Ward LDS Chapel, 190 North 200 East in Bicknell, where friends may call for viewing from 10:00 A.M. to 12:30 P.M. the morning of the services.
Burial will be in the Bicknell Cemetery under the care of the Springer Turner Funeral Homes of Richfield and Salina, Utah
