Ronald ‘C’ Kendrick passed away on December 24, 2020, at his home in Uintah Highlands. He was born September 24, 1941 in Preston, Idaho to Dorothy Crockett and Clarence Kendrick. He attended school in Preston until his senior year, graduating from Ogden High School. He served an LDS Mission to Eastern Canada.

His kids and grandkids brought him the most joy. He loved to watch them play and shuttle them to and from various activities. Ron had a passion for snow skiing, and taught his kids to ski at a young age. He enjoyed spending time at the airport, where he would tinker with his airplane and boat. He loved to boat at Bear Lake, Flaming Gorge, Pineview, and Lake Powell and spend time riding four-wheelers at the sand dunes.

Ron is survived by his wife, Ruth; his children, Jeffrey (Anne) Kendrick, Melissa (Brett) Smith, and Ryan (Melissa) Kendrick; as well as seven grandchildren, whom he adored. He is also survived by his sister, Brenda (Dan) Jensen.

Graveside services will be planned for a later date. Arrangements entrusted to Lindquist’s Ogden Mortuary.
