Clark Brent Call passed away peacefully after a short, courageous battle with Gliblastoma (brain tumor) in the early morning of January 3, 2014 in Saratoga Springs, UT. Brent was born on June 18, 1941 in Ogden, UT to Clark and Arva Holland Call. A few years later, the family moved to Twin Falls, ID. He graduated from Twin Falls High School and then served a LDS mission to the Northwestern States.
Brent attended Utah State University where he met the love of his life, Linda Lee Dives. The two fell in love and were married in the Logan LDS Temple on May 3, 1963. Together they moved to Southern CA. Brent joined the police force on November 6, 1967 and served the City of Long Beach for 30 years. After retiring in 2003, Brent and Linda moved to Saratoga Springs. He continued his service for the City of Saratoga Springs. Not only did he work with the police department doing neighborhood watch, he also ran and won a seat on the City Council. Brent was respected by all.
He and his lovely wife of 50 years served a LDS mission in Salt Lake City. He also served in many church callings including in the Bishopric and High Council. His hobbies included motorcycle riding, golfing and he was an expert when it came to cars. He was happiest when he was out in nature. He loved the mountains.
Family was everything to Dad. His family was his life and was the only thing that could bring tears to this strong, tough man. He is survived by his loving wife, twin daughters Kristy (Fred) Telarico, Kathy (John) McKay, son Jeff (KaraLynne) Call, 12 grandchildren, 2 great-grandchildren and his sister Becky (Larry) Smith. Preceded in death by his parents and his son David Call who passed away in 2005.
