Brett A. Rose
March 25, 1958 – September 12, 2022

        Brett A. Rose passed away unexpectedly in Malad, Idaho on September 12, 2022. He was born March 25, 1958, in Ogden, Utah to Earl and Verleen Rose. He was welcomed home by an older brother Mark and was soon joined by a little sister named Lori Jo.  Brett grew up in North Ogden, UT and enjoyed many wild adventures in his youth.  He enjoyed everything outdoors, from football and basketball, to hunting, fishing, and trapping.  Brett learned the lesson of hard work from an early age. He spent summers as a young teenager picking fruit.  During his High School years, he acquired a summer job working on a ranch in the Big Hole Valley of Montana which he loved. He graduated from Weber High School in 1976.  Brett was called on a mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints and served in the Nashville Tennessee Mission. 

        When he returned home from Tennessee, he met the love of his life Charlene Crittenden in 1981 and they were soon married in the Ogden Utah Temple.  The young couple eventually settled in North Ogden.  As an adult Brett had in his own words “multiple careers”, he started Rose Fencing in 1980 and built fences all over the western United States. When he wasn’t fencing, he loved spending time with his family in the Uinta Mountains fishing.  In the spring of 1994 Brett moved his family to Malad, ID. 

        In Malad, he began his “second career”, operating Malad Valley Upland Hunts.  During this time Brett raised five to six thousand gamebirds a year and professionally trained bird dogs.  Around 2008 he transitioned into his “third career” forming Rose Farms growing organic alfalfa and wheat.  If farming wasn’t enough, he also took on the role of Water Board President of Saint John Irrigation in 2017. He always joked that there was time for one more “career”.

        Regardless of the “career”, Brett’s attention to detail, determination, and hard work meant he’d succeed.  Brett was always willing to give a helping hand to anyone in need, he really would do anything for anyone! He was the epitome of a good man. Brett will be remembered by his family and friends for his work ethic, Christlike service, honesty, specifically “telling it like he saw it”. You always knew were you stood with Brett.

        He was preceded in death by his mother and father. He is survived by his loving wife of 41 years Charlene, son Brock (Morgan) Rose Chubbuck, ID, and Daughter Meagan (Ben) Gleckler Malad, ID, Brother Mark (Tami) Rose Lovell, WY, and sister Lori Jo (Dale) Rasmussen Farr West, UT.  He will forever be loved and adored by his grandchildren Rhone & Sylvie Gleckler and Olin & Ella Rose.
