James Morris "Jim" Larsen, age 81, of Cedarview, returned to his Father in Heaven and a big reunion with his parents on Tues., Aug. 10, 2010.
Jim was born Jan. 27, 1929 in Jackson Hole, Wyo., to James Elmer and Pearl Mariar Jones Larsen. They lived in Victor, Idaho until January of 1947 when they moved to the Montwell/Cedarview area north of Roosevelt.

Jim spent his working years cutting and hauling timber in the Uintah Mountains. He loved being in the mountains and being with his family. He would often take his wife and kids on long rides exploring the Uintah Basin and other parts of Utah. They would sing songs or listen to stories while they traveled. He was greatly loved and will be sorely missed.
