The Bakersfield Californian 
Quarnberg, Maylon E.     
1937 - 2005 
 
Maylon E. Quarnberg 
May 1, 1937 - Nov. 26, 2005 

Maylon was born May 1, 1937, to Elmer and Leah Quarnberg in Scipio, Utah, and 
passed away November 26, 2005, in Scipio, Utah. Raised on a small dairy farm, 
Maylon learned the value of good, honest hard work. He grew up in a time and 
place where a binding contract was nothing more than a handshake and a 
promise. These values, which were instilled in him by his parents, were the 
hallmark by which he lived. After attending elementary school in Scipio and 
high school in Fillmore, Maylon eventually worked his way to Bakersfield, 
California, in 1957. Here he started his career and family. Maylon always had 
a love for the outdoors and was an avid hunter and fisherman. In 1963, along 
with Gene Wamble, Maylon opened Valley Gun Shop and eventually became the sole 
proprietor. He operated the business until 1999 when he retired and sold the 
business to his son, Ken. After retiring, he moved back to Scipio. Maylon had 
an infectious sense of humor and made many lifelong friends. Whether it was on 
a hunting trip or one of his famous backyard wild game feasts, he enjoyed good 
food, good friends and good times at every opportunity. He leaves behind a 
legacy of honesty and integrity which will be remembered by many for years to 
come. Maylon was preceded in death by his father, Elmer. He is survived by his 
mother, Leah; sister, Linda Miller and husband, Marlin; brother, Clinton 
Quarnberg and wife, Donna; sister, Crystal Aldredge and husband, Bill, all of 
Utah, as well as his daughter, Nancy Quarnberg and husband, Doug Ingram of 
Idaho; his son, Ken Quarnberg and wife, Susan of Bakersfield; and daughter, 
Jan Koch and husband, Walter of Bakersfield. He also leaves behind four 
grandchildren, Sarah Williams and husband, Sean, Paul Bertrand, Molly 
Quarnberg and Katie Gibson. In keeping with his wishes, Maylon was buried in a 
private ceremony, in Utah, on a hillside on his own land overlooking the lush 
farmland of his family. In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the 
American Cancer Society.
