Kenneth Brems

Kenneth Dale Brems

July 19, 1948 - April 18, 2011

Kenneth Brems was re-united in the after life with his father and mother Kenneth LaMar and Myrtle June Brems.  Our husband, brother, dad, uncle, grandpa, will be dearly missed by the family in which he truly loved and cared, and his numerous friends for which they shared mutual admiration and respect.

Kenny was born in Salt Lake City, Utah and lived most of his live in Magna.  He married Gayle Petersen on October 20, 1965 and had two loving boys.  On September 26, 1980 Kenny married the love of his life, the heart of his soul, Catherine Elizabeth Bezzant.  They built a beautiful home in Erda, UT to be a gathering place for his family and friends to celebrate holidays and special occasions.  They enjoyed spending time on the golf course with each other, and watching their children and grandchildren grow up around them.

Kenny was the backbone to his family and surrounded them with his love. He always made time to listen and offer the best advice. He never judged just offered a push now & then in the right direction. He spoke the truth and never left you wondering what he was thinking.

Kenny was employed with Kennecott for 45 years where his work ethics, dedication, Bachelor of Science in Quality Control and Masters degree enabled him to progress to the position of Asset Manager.  Kenny was well respected by both his employees and supervisors.

He is survived by his wife of 30 years; sons, Kenny (BobbiJo) Brems & Richard (Shara Gager) Brems; daughters, Danielle (Kurt) Stephensen & Melissa (Jim) Clark; siblings, Karen (Steve) Matz, Nancy Key, Tom (Esther) Brems, Ted (Stacey) Brems, Vance (Sharron) Smith, & Diana (Stan) Andreason; grandchildren, Randy Brems, Tessla Brems, Austin Stephensen, Shayanne Warr, Chance Warr, Colton Yeager, Aspyn Yeager, Mikelle Hardman, Autumn Brems, Madison Stephensen, Michael Clark, Brea Brems, & Mason Clark.

More than my Grandpa you are my best friend. I will forever miss you. Love Shay & Grandkids.
