Kendell Mcintosh

Gunnison, Utah - Our beloved father, grandfather, uncle, friend, and brother, Kendell McIntosh, age 60, of Gunnison, left us to be in Heaven with his many loved ones on November 14, 2017 due to complications with his lungs, in Provo, Utah. He was born October 3, 1957 in Mt. Pleasant, Utah, a son of John Amos and Marlene Madsen McIntosh. Kendell was one of 8 children growing up so he always had one of his siblings to cause havok with. He married the love of his life Lynette Johnson on November 13, 1976 and they went on to have 5 wonderful children together. Lynette passed away December 25, 2004. Kendell was a caring, compassionate man, putting everyone else before himself. He was the most selfless man we've ever known, always giving and never expecting anything in return. He was a man of few words, but anything he said always spoke volumes to everyone around him. He was the hardest worker we have ever known, working many years as a coal miner at Sufco and Skyline. As most would know, Kendell loved being outdoors he had many hobbies that he cherished. If he wasn't outside doing yard work or working on his vehicles you could find him in the mountains, hunting, camping, fishing, searching for arrowheads, riding his four wheelers, or one of his newest hobbies, snowmobiling. He loved his children and grandchildren very much, he took pride in their accomplishments and helped them through their failures, always there to pick us up when we were down, but setting an amazing example for everyone along the way. To say he will be missed would be an understatement, but we know he is not far away. Dad would have wanted us to continue on with our lives, to stay close as siblings, to do the things he loved to do with us, to keep the traditions going and to know that no matter what happens in this life, we will always have each other. He is survived by his children: Megan Mcintosh, Mandie Mcintosh, Brady and Heidi Mcintosh, Mckall and Kolby Street; 14 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren; brother: Billy Mcintosh; sisters: Virginia Draper and Sherry Horne. He is proceeded in death by many of his dear loved ones. But the one we know he couldn't wait to see is waiting to welcome him home with open arms and what a beautiful reunion that must be, His sweet, Lynette.
