Lindrith "Lin" Eugene Cordell, 86, of Evergreen, Colo. and Tucson, Ariz., died on Sunday, October 3, 2021 at Carondelet St. Mary's Hospital in Tucson after a short illness at the end of a long, full life.
He was born on March 23, 1935 in Santa Fe, N.M. to Lindrith Cordell Sr. and Margaret Heshion Cordell. Both preceded him in death along with his longtime stepmother, Norma Cordell; his sons, Paul Nils Cordell and Lindrith "Lindy"(Cordell) Davies; and a daughter-in-law, Denise Ruth Myrup.
As a globetrotting USGS geophysicist, Lin's field work, lectures, published papers and professional connections took him all over the world.
In 1974, they moved to a 10-acre property in Kerr Gulch. This working ranch home became known as the Kerr Gulch Lamb and Cattle Co. and later, the Old Cordell Place.
