Allen Dayle Carlson was eighty-nine ½ years old when he progressed joyfully to the next life on June 3, 2015.
He was born January 28, 1926 in Los Angeles, California to Alvin W. and Jennie Mann Carlson, the third of four sons.
After graduating from Fremont High School, he was drafted into the Army. He served in the 97th Infantry Division in Germany, Czechoslovakia, and Japan during WWII.
After the war he served an LDS mission to East Central States, it was there that he met Belva Scott, whom he married on March 23, 1951 in the Salt Lake Temple. She passed away on November 13, 2010, and Allen was never quite the same.
Together, Allen and Belva served two full-time missions. They went to Paraguay in 1981, and to the Atlanta Temple in 1988. From his missions, he gained a love for the Spanish language and for talking “Southern,” and would use both frequently. He felt that every couple should serve a mission.
The first half of his life was in the Los Angeles area. He worked for thirty years for North American Aviation/North American Rockwell/Rockwell International as a facilities planner. He retired at age fifty-five to serve a mission.
After their mission to Paraguay, they relocated to West Jordan. Here, they served for many years as temple workers in the Jordan River Temple.
He loved the out of doors; the ocean and the mountains. Allen was inventive and creative and made all kinds of gadgets to make things work “better.”
The thing he loved most was his family, his sweetheart, Belva, his children, and their families and his large extended family of cousins, nieces, and nephews.
He especially loved his ancestors and was proud of his Swedish roots. He encouraged everyone to do family history. He was very proficient on the computer and helped many find their ancestors.
He is survived by daughters, Janeen and Mo Myers and Kristie and Jerry Morton; daughter-in-law, Angie Carlson; nine grandchildren, sixteen great-grandchildren, and brother, Gary. He was preceded in death by wife, Belva; brothers, Reg and Stan; son, Reed, who, as Allen liked to say, “progressed” just this past February; and one grandson.
We will celebrate his life on Monday and wish him “adios” June 8, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. in the Mountain Shadows Seventh Ward Chapel, 7903 Sourh 2700 West, West Jordan. A visitation will be held prior to the services from 9:30-10:45 a.m.
Interment will be in the West Jordan City Cemetery.
