Kip was a jack of all trades. If a person needed help with anything from construction to snow removal to simply being there for anyone who needed help or support he was there.

Kip started off his employment at Ricks College as an Admissions Officer. Kip was promoted and became the Dean of Students at BYU-I in 2009 and was a very dedicated and an important resource to the university and was often found waking up early and going to bed late with his university duties.

He served as an Elder’s Quorum President, counselor in a bishopric, Young Men’s President, bishop of a ward at Brigham Young University-Idaho and a bishop in his home ward, Kip also served in a stake presidency.
Kip was known by his neighbors as the “angel on the tractor”. He was given this name because of his service that he continuously gave to his neighbors all through the winter. Kip would wake up at 4:30 in the morning every time it snowed in order to prepare his tractor for plowing the snow that had fallen on the neighbor’s driveways. Kip’s love of others was always shown through his service that he gave to them. Kip was always in the service of others and everyone who knows him has felt of that pure love through his service.
