Obituary: David Golden Kimball

David Golden Kimball (1939 ~ 2005) Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. Our loving husband, father, grandfather, brother and friend, returned to his heavenly home Tuesday, November 15, 2005 at his home in Midway, Utah with his loving family by his side after a valiant year long battle with esophageal cancer. He was born September 7, 1939 to Dr. James Leroy Kimball and Marjorie Dahlen Kimball in Salt Lake City, Utah. He married the love of his life, Lorna Williamson in the Salt Lake Temple, having just celebrated their 30th anniversary on October 25th. David is a loving and caring person, always taking care of his family and putting others first. He is a great example to us all and will continue to be. He is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in the British Mission and grew to have a great love and passion for England. He graduated from Brigham Young University in 1966 and is a long time season ticket holder of BYU Football and U of U Basketball, juggling his loyalty to both. He enjoyed the occasional round of golf with his boys, camping with his wife and family and autumn horseback rides. David always made friends easily, and seemed to know people everywhere, no matter where he was or what he was doing. He was always leaving a lasting impression on people with his classic bit of dry wit. Survived by his devoted wife, Lorna; his sons, David II (Rachel), Jason, Joshua; his daughters, Lisa, Kadie Nielsen (Tom); and five grandchildren; brothers, James Jr., John, and Bill Kimball; sisters, Marion Dunn and Mitzie Bigelow. Preceded in death by his parents. Funeral services will be held Saturday, November 19 at 11:00 a.m. at the Emigration 4th Ward, 589 E. 18th Avenue in Salt Lake City, Utah. A viewing will be held Friday, November 18 from 6:00-8:00 p.m. at Larkin Mortuary, 260 E. South Temple, Salt Lake and one hour prior to services at the ward. The family would like to thank Marcene Littledike of IHC Hospice, along with Dr. Ross E. Morgan and staff. In lieu of flowers please donate to IHC Hospice Care, 2250 South 1300 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84119.
