Liam C Bursett

From the start, Liam did things in his own time. He came into this world prematurely, graduated high school early, and left us way too soon. Born on January 7, 2008 and raised in the Kamas Valley, Liam passed away on July 9, 2025 doing what he loved to the very end - riding his motorcycle.

Liam was known for his curly hair, striking blue eyes, enviable eyelashes (which he once cut himself after too many compliments), and his kind, selfless heart. He was social beyond his years, and could have a conversation with anyone. He always noticed the little things and helped out without being asked. Liam put others before himself and left an impression of quiet strength and anything-but-subtle humor wherever he went.

He spent his time gaming with family and friends, playing guitar, drawing, welding, and singing (sometimes poorly, but always with enthusiasm). Riding his motorcycle was a passion he inherited from his dad and enjoyed with his siblings and friends.

Liam had a talent for cooking. As a young child, he prepared fancy sandwiches for himself and always made a second one especially for his mom. This went on through the years with the food creations continuing to impress others. Liam enjoyed innovating with unusual combinations - such as his quest to create the perfect pomegranate milkshake and his infamous cheeseburger shake which he declared, after his second bite, was the worst flavor ever. Liam worked in the food industry and loved working with family and friends.

Liam also went through a phase where he insisted on spelling his name “Liamm,” a joke that will live on with his siblings, Kelsey, Connor, Noelle, and his parents, Steve and Gennifer. Liam will also be missed by his large extended family and countless friends who loved him deeply.

A Celebration of Life will be held on Tuesday, July 15th, from 4:00 to 8:00 PM at The Red Barn in Oakley, Utah (4300 N SR 32). All who wish to support his family and honor his memory are welcome to attend.

Ride for love. Ride for Liam.
