Lindon, Ut - Lawrence Smith Barlow Jr. (preferred name: “Junior”), age: 18, passed away: Monday, Aug 26th, 2024 due to respiratory failure. He was born July 12, 2006, in St. George Ut to Markay Jessop Barlow & Lawrence Barlow Sr. 

 Junior, the vibrant and adventurous son of Lawrence and Markay, left this world too soon.
