Brent Farnsworth, age 61, of Ioka, passed away November 10, 2020, at the Uintah Basin Medical Center.
He was born September 1, 1959, in Roosevelt, to David Alonzo and Lillian Jane Liddell Farnsworth.
Brent was a welder and horseman all of his life. He was very proud of the fences and other things that be built. He was a perfectionist – if it wasn’t meticulously done to his high standards, you did it again! When he wasn’t welding, he was raising and training horses. He really enjoyed pack trips into the High Uintahs, where he would hunt and fish. He loved and adored his grandchildren and children.
Brent is survived by his children, Tyrell Farnsworth, Duchesne; Trent Farnsworth, Roosevelt; Jessi (Colter) Knight, Tridell; grandchildren, Taylor, Brentlee, Jazlyn, Kolbi, & Braxton Farnsworth; Rylee & Jordyn Knight; siblings, Kim Farnsworth (Michelle Pratt), Roosevelt; Larry (Julie) Farnsworth, Bridgeland; Becky (Brian) Shade, Salt Lake City; and numerous nieces and nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, David & Lillian; a sister, Gaylene Jones; and his favorite horse, “Duke”.
