Bryan Leon Telford

July 6, 1977 – August 31, 2017

Bryan Leon Telford, 40, passed away unexpectedly on August 31, 2017 in Ogden, Utah.  He was born July 6, 1977, the son of Eldon Leon Telford and Kathleen Easthope Telford.  Bryan had a sparkle in his deep brown eyes and an endearing, infectious smile.

He attended Ogden City and Davis County schools.  Bryan became a CNA, he worked in the construction industry, various retail establishments and after completing his machinist training he worked for Scougal Rubber Company.  He was a member of the LDS Church.  He appreciated the beauty, grain and texture of all species of wood and used his natural ability to carve numerous beautiful pieces.

He was a gifted harmonica player and willingly shared his own unique musical style with those around him.  Bryan loved being in the great outdoors and spent countless hours camping at Grandma’s Grove, the family property.  He was hooked on FISHING; it was one of his favorite passions in life!  He will be missed by his large and loving circle of family and friends, whose lives were touched by his compassionate, tender heart.

Bryan is survived by his parents Eldon Telford and Kathleen Telford; daughter McKelle King; brothers: Kevin Telford, Paul Telford; nieces, Keyona Telford and Samara Casper; nephews, Dayton Telford and Wyatt Casper; aunts, uncles and numerous cousins.  He was preceded in death by his grandparents: Marden Telford; Ronald and Marjorie Ralph, Clarence and Anna Easthope and his cousin Jason Newbold.
