Brent Wayne Blackburn
November 28, 1956 — August 23, 2025
Loa/ Centerville/ Helper

Brent Wayne Blackburn, passed away on August 23, 2025, at the age of 68. He was serving a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Adam-Ondi-Ahman, a historical site near Gallatin, Missouri; a dream he had prepared for his entire life.

Brent was born on November 28, 1956 to Charles and Janee Blackburn in Richfield, Utah. He has six siblings and enjoyed growing up in beautiful Wayne County, which inspired his lifelong love of exploration and adventure. Brent married his sweetheart, Carolyn Squires, on September 19, 1980. They have been blessed with seven children and have 22 grandchildren.

Brent was a master teacher and always in the pursuit of learning. He earned his degrees and certificates through multiple Universities. He taught STEM and shop courses in public school for 30 years in various school districts. His teaching extended past the classroom to whomever he met. He traveled all over the United States to instruct teachers in engineering curriculums with Project Lead The Way. Brent worked as an audio engineer for several radio stations, the Utah Jazz, and multiple events including the 2002 Winter Olympics.

He had wit and humor that was endearing. He loved to surprise his family with gifts or a completed project and took pride in his work. He was great at connecting with other people in any place or situation. Brent was unafraid of any challenge or task and had profound confidence which enabled him to become a ‘jack of all trades’ in every aspect of his life. He loved tools and machines and was constantly driving something: his homemade electric truck, a motorcycle, or a tractor. While working in his wood, metal, and automotive shop, he loved listening to conference talks.

Brent never stood around with his teeth in his mouth. He was always looking for the ‘best deal’ and never forgot where he bought anything or the savings he scored. Brent loved scuba diving, cooking, traveling, camping in his converted bus, and fulfilling his callings in Boy Scouts. He made sacrifices without complaining and was constantly motivated to mend, fix, or build things for others.

Brent lived his life devoted to God, he served quietly and humbly. He left a legacy and love of Temple work, attending weekly for over 40 years. He loved the Savior and knew that dedication and faith resulted in blessings. He always made sure to attend church even when traveling. He served four missions for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints; Central America, Fiji, Helaman Hollows Camp, and AOA. He led by example and lived his testimony of the Savior by his conduct and dedication to the Lord and His Restored Gospel. He was a true friend, mentor, and hero to all those who knew him.

Brent is survived by his sweet wife Carolyn Squires; his children: Calista Burbank of Smithfield, Brenda Fillerup (Fran) of Centerville, Carly Yates (Jordan) of Helper, Barton Blackburn (Judy) of Bountiful, Bonnie Wall (Sterling) of Tucson, Camille Hawkes (Jordan) of Tucson, Benson Blackburn (Hannah) of Centerville; his 22 Grandchildren; his parents, Charles and Janee Blackburn of Loa, Utah; his siblings: Randy Blackburn (Michelle), Joni Taft (Andy), Mitch Blackburn (TyAnn), Janalee Barlow (David), Kerry Blackburn (Amara), and Bryce Blackburn (Emily).

Mike McKeachnie
January 14, 1960 — August 20, 2025
Vernal

Michael Wayne McKeachnie was born on January 14, 1960, in Rock Springs, Wyoming, to Janice and William McKeachnie. On the morning of August 20, 2025, Mike passed away peacefully in the comfort of his home, surrounded by the love of his family, leaving behind a legacy of warmth, generosity, and an unwavering devotion to those he held dear.

On April 8, 1978, Mike married his soulmate, Debbie Womack, beginning a lifelong partnership filled with love, laughter, and shared adventures. Their bond was further sealed for time and eternity in the Vernal Temple on October 12, 2002. Together, they built a beautiful family, raising three children: Tyler McKeachnie, Cody McKeachnie (Cara), and Marissa McKeachnie (Chase Norton). Mike's pride in his children was boundless, and he cherished every moment spent watching them raise families of their own.

Mike's career in the oil patch spanned decades, where he worked as a roughneck, truck driver, and tool hand. His strong work ethic and infectious personality made him a friend to all, forging deep connections with colleagues who remained close long after their paths diverged.

An avid outdoorsman, Mike's heart was most at home in the mountains. Whether casting a line on fishing trips to Alaska with his cherished friends and family or retreating to his cabin on Diamond Mountain, he found joy in the serenity of nature. These moments, filled with campfire stories, shared meals, and the beauty of the wilderness, were among his most treasured.

Above all, Mike was a family man. He wore many titles—son, brother, husband, father—but none fit him as perfectly as Grandpa. Known as "Papa Mike" to his 13 grandchildren and countless others, including the children of cousins, nieces, nephews, and neighbors, he had an extraordinary gift for making every child feel loved and valued. His playful spirit, endless patience, and warm hugs made him a beloved figure to all who knew him, and his home was a haven where anyone could count on his support and kindness. The pool was also always open.

Mike was preceded in death by his parents, William and Janice McKeachnie; his in-laws, Dale and Cheri Womack; his nephew, Beau J. Dugan Furrh; and his brother-in-law, Tommy Womack.

He is survived by his devoted wife, Debbie Womack; his children, Tyler McKeachnie, Cody McKeachnie (Cara), and Marissa McKeachnie (Chase Norton), brother John McKeachnie (Delsi), Sisters Karen Wallen, Shelley Mclain, brother-in-law Scott Womack (Paige), Sister-in-law Julie Loveland (Lonny), Sister-in-law Lorri Furrh (Monte), 7 nephews, 8 nieces, and his 13 grandchildren, who will carry his love and lessons forward.

Mike's life was a testament to the power of love, friendship, and family. His laughter echoed through the mountains, his kindness touched countless lives, and his legacy will endure in the hearts of all who had the privilege of knowing him. As we bid farewell to this remarkable man, we find comfort in knowing that his spirit will forever watch over those he loved so dearly.

Funeral Services will be held Monday, August 25, 2025 at 10 AM at the Uintah Conference Center, with viewings held Sunday, from 6-8 PM at the Mortuary and 1 hour prior to service at the Conference Center.

Burial will be in the Vernal Memorial Park, under the direction of Blackburn Vernal Mortuary

Joseph "Joe" David Ipson
April 3, 1987 — August 13, 2025
Vernal

Joe Ipson, beloved husband, father, son, and brother, passed away peacefully surrounded by his family early Wednesday morning at his home in Dry Fork Utah, after a brief but fierce fight with cancer.

Joseph David Ipson was born April 3, 1987 to Morrill David Ipson and Ruth Ann Cottam in Vernal, Utah. He was eagerly anticipated and beloved as the first brother in a house full of sisters. He grew up as both a beloved little brother, as well as big brother. He had a gentle and kind heart from the first day of his life.

After graduating from Uintah High School, Joe served a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in the Texas Lubbock Mission, during which he made life-long friends, as Joe had a gift for doing. Joe served in many callings in the Church through the remainder of his life, but especially loved serving with the youth. His infectious humor and kind heart made him easy to love and easy to relate to. He has inspired so many throughout his life by simply being a kind man.

Joe met Libby, the love of his life, in September of 2008. After knowing each other very briefly, they knew that they were meant to be together always. They were married five months later in the Las Vegas temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. He loved Libby wholly and completely, and together they built a joyful, thriving, and beautiful life together. Together with their two children, Ollie and Penny, they created the life they had all dreamed of together in Dry Fork. Any visitor to their home could sense the love, faith, and support that held their home together and filled it with love.

Joe was an avid outdoorsman and he enjoyed shooting, riding his motorcycle, and mountain biking. He loved his family property in Dry Fork and he loved the ocean and the beach. Most of what made him love these places so much was the time spent there with his loved ones.

Joe was an exceptional father. He loved his kids fiercely, and he never missed a scrimmage, hockey game, or dance recital. He worked from home so that he could be with his children as much as possible every day. He excelled in his career. He was a self-taught engineer and built a thriving career through his skills and his drive to never stop learning and improving. Through his work, he also built life-long friendships and inspired many who worked with him.

Joe was creative and generous with his love and talents. He was always there to help anyone who needed it. Throughout his life, he noticed and sought to serve those around him who needed kindness or help. His quick wit and sense of humor brought constant laughter to those around him. He truly joyed in bringing laughter to any occasion, and he brightened any situation he was in.

Joe was very, very good and very beloved, and our sorrow at his passing from our lives is great. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away, and while we endure the grief of his going away, which is a grief that only the Lord can understand, we also say, blessed be the name of the Lord for the miracle of being given Joe as our son, uncle, brother, husband, and father.

Joe is preceded in death by his father-in-law, Grant Olenslager, as well as his sister, Mary. He is survived by his wife, Libby, their children, Ollie and Penny, his parents, Dave and Ruth Ipson, and his siblings, Ann and Matt Richmond, Chantile and Tyson Ferriera, Christine and Tory Mathis, Jessie Richens, and John and Beccy Ipson, his mother-in-law LaRetta Olenslager, and brothers and sisters-in-law Dustin and Desiree Olenslager, and Shad and Melissa Olenslager, and many nieces and nephews who loved him dearly.

Joe's family would especially like to express their gratitude to Michael Wilson, Chelsea Roth, Shaun Shurtliff, Kim Kobernick, and the staff at Canyon Home Care and Hospice for their loving care during this time.

In accordance with Joe's wishes, he will be cremated and there will be no public viewing. The funeral services for Joe will be held on August 23 at 2:00 pm at the Rock Point building of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, located at 2575 North 1500 West, Vernal, Utah.

In lieu of flowers, we ask all who loved Joe to continue to support and love Joe's wife and children as they move forward without their cherished husband and father

Her father passed away when Shana was only 2 years old leaving her mother a single mom with 7 children to raise. Grandma Wardell made sure that she always had the necessities of life, she taught Shana and her siblings by her example and work ethic – to be dependable, work hard and give an honest day’s work for honest day’s pay, and a love of the Lord and to always trust that he would take care of her family. Her best friends were her three sisters, Gloria, Connie and Kay. She spent the school months in Vernal and the summer months on the family ranch in Colorado.

Carol Webber
January 21, 1940 — August 10, 2025

Carol Marie Powell Pullan Webber

Mom, Grandma, Grandma Great

January 21, 1940 - August 10, 2025

Carol Webber, 85, of Vernal, Utah, left this world on Sunday, August 10, 2025, after a long and courageous battle with Parkinson’s Disease. With her loving family by her side, she passed away peacefully in her home while being serenaded by Willie Nelson.

Carol was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, on January 21, 1940, to Alvin and Belle Powell. She was raised in Salt Lake City and attended West High School. Carol married Lawrence Pullan in Salt Lake City and had five children, then divorced. She married Bud Webber on June 30, 1985, and gained four step-children. They adopted one more daughter.

Carol spent the majority of her career working for Salt Lake County. She began her career typing vehicle registrations for the entire county. Over the years she held many positions in the SL County Assessor’s office, eventually rising to become one of the first women appraisers in the county. She even ran for the office of County Assessor. Carol was breaking glass ceilings for women long before the term was coined. With her professionalism, class, dignity and humor, she was an inspiration to young women.

Carol was able to retire early and began the next phase of her life. She learned to scuba dive and traveled to exotic diving sites around the world. She also adopted and loved another baby. She raised llamas, learned to shear them and spun their wool into yarn. Her home in Overton, Nevada, was home to a huge variety of species, from emus to turtles and everything in between. But, animals aside, if you asked any one of her grandkids what they loved most about Overton, it would be Grandma’s grand Easter egg hunt. She absolutely adored watching the kids race across the lawn for those prized eggs full of candy and change.

She leaves behind with heavy hearts her daughters, Tamara Pullan, Laurie Montgomery, Kimberly Bender and Sammantha White Lusk (Travis); son Shane Pullan; daughter in-law Jeannie Duncan; step-children Roques Ann Fillerup (Craig) and Ronda Larsen (Tom); 16 grandchildren; 30 great grandchildren; 6 great great grandchildren; 13 step-grandchildren and 24 step-great grandchildren; brother Calvin Powell (Joyce); sisters Cathy Wolfe and Cindy Summerill (Jim).

As sad as we are, we know that there is joyous reunion in heaven with her husband Bud Webber; son Brent Pullan; sons-in-law Max Montgomery and Kevin Bender; great great grandson Conor Taft; step-sons Rusty and Randee Webber; step-grandson Cole Davis; and her parents, Belle Wyatt and Alvin Powell.

As Carol’s illness progressed, she received care and support from her many family members. She expressed her gratitude to those family members and we do, too.

Carol was a force to be reckoned with throughout her life. We know of no other woman that was classier, stronger, more determined or loving than our mom.

Services will be held on Saturday, August 23, 2025, at Blackburn Vernal Mortuary, 15 East 100 North, Vernal, Utah, beginning at noon. Internment of Carol’s ashes will follow at Rock Point Cemetery, 2250 W 2500 N, Vernal, then a luncheon and celebration of her well lived life will be held at Ashley Valley Community Park, 500 N 900 W, Vernal. We chose the park for the playground because her grandkids ruled her world!

Kayleen Bernice Edrington

12.25.1953 – 06.17.2025

Kayleen’s family has always been a bunch of last-minute people. When she started coming into this world, her parents, Ron and Lola, were out on Christmas Eve doing their shopping for their older kids when Lola’s water broke. They finished their shopping and then headed to the hospital, where their youngest pride and joy came into the Wide World of Worland, Wyoming on Christmas Day.

During her early childhood, she was both a Mama’s and Daddy’s girl. She got to go on a few more adventures with them than her older sister and brother—mostly because she was just a bit too much of a wild child for her grandparents to handle. She grew up in Vernal and lived there most of her life.

Of all the things her parents taught her, a strong work ethic was probably the most important. In her working years, she did a wide variety of things, whether it was cooking, driving a taxi, or working as a welder’s helper during the boom of the ’80’s—it didn’t matter. She always did the best damn job she could, because she believed in doing things right the first time.

After being diagnosed with MS at age 27, she was bound and determined it wasn’t going to stop her. And while it may have knocked her down with attacks here and there, she never let it keep her down. Over the years, she volunteered at the Dinosaur Roundup Rodeo, taking tickets year after year—so many years, in fact,

that she earned Volunteer of the Year. Another thing she loved dearly was running her mobile concession stand, L i t t l e L ad y B u g’ s, where she showed up at events across the community. She loved it because it gave her the chance to get out, socialize, and cook something delicious for others to enjoy. Whenever she cooked, she just wanted people to like it—and when someone complimented her food, it lit up her whole day.

In her later years, some of her favorite things were BINGO!!!, playing cards with the girls and going on little adventures with them. She was a social butterfly and loved meeting new people, as well as running into old friends to visit with. She welcomed everyone into her home and made sure they didn’t leave hungry.

She had two marriages, and the best thing to come out of them were her three children: Dewain, Wrena, and Kaydee. She loved them fiercely and gave her all to raise them. And she instilled the same work ethic in her children that her parents taught her. She always made sure they were taken care of, even if it meant going without herself. That was just the kind of person she was—generous to a fault. Even if she had nothing to give, if someone asked her for help, she’d give them the shirt off her back.

Kayleen is survived by her three children: Dewain (Tanya) Boren of Roosevelt, UT; Wrena (Bill) Julius of Fountain, CO; Kaydee (Phillip) Seward of Roosevelt, UT; Her grandchildren: Brody (Angela) Clark, Dalton Clark, Jaxson Clark, Alana Boren, Cutter Boren, Keyona Julius, William Julius, Tess Rivers, and Lola “Sunny” Seward; along with four great-grandchildren. She is also survived by her sister, Lonnie Hadlock; her brother, Kennie (Lory) Edrington; many nieces and nephews; and a very large extended family she loved with all her heart—especially those who knew her as Grandma Kayleen.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Ron and Lola Edrington, and her brother-in-law, Todd Hadlock.

She was loved by so many and will be missed by all. Mom, we love you more than you will ever know. Kayleen chose not to have a funeral; instead, she requested a celebration of life at a later date.

*******A Potluck Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, August 16, 2025, at 11 am at the Colton Pavilion at the Vernal Park, with food at 12 noon and a balloon release at 2pm. Everyone is welcome.******

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that instead the next time you see a ladybug you think of Kayleen

Stella "Tina" Murray

Vernal

Livestream Link: https://my.gather.app/remember/stella-tina-murray

Our beautiful Mom, Stella "Tina" Murray passed away peacefully on Aug. 7, 2025, into the loving arms of our Dad, Larry Murray.

Mom was born on Nov.3, 1943, to Pilar "Pete" Carbajal and Juanita "Jenny" Hernandez Carbajal in Grand Junction, CO. She was raised along with her eight siblings in the small town of Fruita, CO.

She married Val Williams and together they had Michael, they were later divorced. She married our Dad, Larry in Craig, CO and together raised five children, Michael E. Williams, Corey W. Murray, Bridget L. Murray, Margo L. Murray Oaks and Larry L Murray II.

Mom attended Mesa College and earned her Business/Secretarial Certificate. She was acknowledged for being proficient in 10 key, typing and short hand/stenography. Her cursive writing was always acknowledged and admired both professionally and personally. Her artistic writing carried over to her stenography. These skills were utilized throughout her employment years managing the books at the Conoco station in Jensen, the cash cage at K-Mart and finally with Murray Drywall Inc.

In the spring of 1981, after a visit with Dad's family, we relocated to Jensen, UT, where Mom and Dad became the proud owners of Larry's Conoco aka Larry and Tina's Place. With a gas station, convenience store and cafe, mom and dad jumped in head first without much experience. Mom took on the duties of head cook, ordering and purchasing, A/R, A/P, payroll and at times bartender. She was proud of her Mexican heritage and shared this with her delicious pork and green chili burritos, tortillas, menudo and salsa. All were popular with both the locals and the tourists. Many fond memories and lasting friendships were made at Larry & Tina's Place and we have the pictures to prove it.

After leaving the Conoco in 1986, Dad returned to the drywall trade and together with mom traveled to Puerto Rico and the Wasatch Front. In 1991 Mom hired on at K-mart starting on the floor as a cashier and in the garden dept. Eventually she was promoted to the payroll and cash cage departments.

Mom decided to join forces with Dad and Larry and became the secretary at MDI. After years of contributing to the success of MDI, she officially retired.

Mom enjoyed family reunions, camping, and watching the Jazz, Gunsmoke and Judge Judy. She loved her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, family and friends and most of all Dad. Her dedication and love for our Dad was a true love story.

She is survived by her children Michael Williams, Margo (Troy) Oaks, Larry L. (Lara) Murray II, siblings Connie (Ron) Dalrymple, Joe (Bill) Carbajal, Rudolph (Char) Carbajal, Tina (Mike) White, 10 Grandchildren, 12 great grandchildren, 1 great great grandchild and many nieces and nephews.

She is preceded in death by her husband Larry Lee Murray, her parents Pilar "Pete" and Juanita "Jenny" Carbajal, brothers Rudy Carbajal, Pete "Junior" Carbajal, sisters Delores Roybal, and Carmen McDowell, children Corey W. Murray and Bridget Murray.

Funeral Services will be held Saturday, August 16, 2025 at 12 Noon at the Blackburn Vernal Mortuary with a Visitation 1 hour prior and Burial in the Jensen Cemetery next to her Love, Larry Lee Murray.
