Keiven Gatton

1947-2019

Keiven Lee Gatton, our loving father, brother, uncle, and nephew, passed away peacefully on September 13, 2019, surrounded by his family. Keiv was born on April 24, 1947, in Rhinelander, Wisconsin, to Lee Orin Gatton and Elsie Imogene Gatton (Merchant). Keiv graduated from Bingham High School in 1965 and went to work in the printing business.

As often has he could, Keiven enjoyed the outdoors. He shared his love of hiking, fishing, and shooting with friends and family. He lived in Salt Lake City but always found himself more at home in the Uinta Mountains. He had an enthusiasm for life and the many simple pleasures he found in it.

Keiven will be missed by his son Joe, stepsons Bill and Reg Hall, sisters Denise (Cone) and Corrinne (Hillard), brothers Bob and Russell, nephews Micheal and James, nieces Diane and Grace, great-nephews Isaac, James, and Lucas, and Aunt Gwen (Boatwright). Keiven is predeceased by his parents and brother Neil.
