Morris Garn Brereton, our beloved husband, father, grandfather, brother, and friend returned home to his Heavenly Father and Savior on April 27, 2024. He was born August 11, 1928 in Pleasant View, Utah, to Morris Austin Brereton and Opal Lillian Hansen and was the second of eight children.

He married his sweetheart, Karma Deane Gurney, on March 29, 1950, for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake LDS Temple. His pride and joy is his family, wife, and his three children: Jerry G. Brereton, Greg E. Brereton, and Cynthia Brereton Farnworth.

In his youth, he grew up in Pleasant View, Utah where he worked alongside his father and siblings on their family farm. He learned to work hard in his youth and always said that it was not work if you enjoyed doing it. During his teenage years, he would accompany his father as he "peddled" fruit all over the western United States.

After graduation from Lincoln High School, he served in the United States Air Force from 1946-1948 as a member of the 37th Troop Carrier Squadron as a Crew Chief and airplane mechanic aboard the C-82 airplanes. He was assigned to work with the 82nd Airborne Division. After being honorably discharged from the Air Force, he started working at Geneva Steel in the rolling mills and retired after working there for 35 years.

After retiring, he and Karma spent may winters in Desert Hot Springs, California. He made many friends and was a positive influence in many lives.

He had the most fun with family activities and being together. He loved camping, sports, playing games, traveling, fishing, hunting, playing billiards, going to movies, and was a true blue BYU fan. He loved gardening and could make anything grow, especially peaches. He was a true artisan with wood and could make and fix anything. Although he built many homes, his true woodworking passion was finish work and building cabinets.

He held many positions in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints throughout his life including Sunday School President, Ward Activities Committee, High Priest Assistant Group Leader, Indexing Committee and Home Teacher. He has a strong testimony of his Savior Jesus Christ and His restored gospel. Garn lived his testimony every day.

He is survived by his children: Jerry (Gayle) Brereton, Greg (Hope) Brereton, and Cynthia Brereton Farnworth; 10 grandchildren, 21 great-grandchildren, and 5 great, great-grandchildren, his brother Ronald Brereton and sister Karen Brereton. He was preceded in death by his wife Karma, his parents, and siblings: Maureen Pulley, Glade Brereton, Grant Brereton, Norman Brereton, Sheralyn Smith, and son-in-law Blaine "Scooter" Farnworth.

Funeral Services will be held at 11:00 a.m. Friday May 3, 2024 at the Orem, Orchard Stake Center located at 810 East 600 North, Orem, Utah, with a viewing from 9:30-10:30 prior to the services.
