Hansen, David Alton
BURLEY, Idaho (KMVT/KSVT) —David Alton Hansen, a 71-year-old resident of Burley, Idaho, passed away Friday, January 12, 2024, at St. Luke’s Magic Valley Medical Center in Twin Falls, Idaho.
He was born October 25, 1952, in Rupert, Idaho, the seventh of eight children born to Rodney Alton and Zira Jean (Belnap) Hansen. He grew up working with his family on their potato farm in Paul, Idaho. He enjoyed playing basketball and church softball. He served in the Germany North Mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Upon completion of his mission, he married Alice Anne Carey, December 18, 1976, in the Idaho Falls Idaho Temple. He then earned a bachelor’s degree from Utah State University, and an MBA from University of Utah. After graduating he went home to farm with his father, Rodney Hansen, brother, Bruce Hansen, and brother-in-law, Duane Hunt in the Paul area for Rodney Hansen Farms. David and Alice made Burley their permanent home to raise their six children and were happily married for 48 years.
He loved being out on the farm, but his real enjoyment was being involved in the business management aspects. He later began to split his time between the farm and the financial department for Mart Produce.
He was a kind, constant father and devoted husband. In addition to his family, he committed his heart and life to serving Jesus Christ. He served the Church in many positions at the stake and ward level. He was exemplary in his consistent scripture study each morning before he headed out to work at 6 a.m. He was known and loved for his sincere, loving, patient, and good-natured manner by all who knew him.
He is survived by his wife, Alice; six children and their spouses, Kaisa (Chad) Crossley, Esther (Elliot) Seibold, Rodney (Jenni Brdecka) Hansen, Ingrid (Rob) Smallman, Helen (Avery) Neilson, and Greta Hansen; three sisters, Karen (Kenneth) Hutto, Laureen (Jay) Anderson and Margaret (Duane) Hunt; two brothers, Bruce (Elaine) Hansen and Thayne (Laurie) Hansen; a sister-in-law, Pam Hansen; 11 grandsons; and four granddaughters.
He was preceded in death by his parents; and two brothers, Howard Hansen and Lowell Hansen.
He left behind a legacy of faith, kindness, and sincerity that will be remembered. His example will continue to bless his family and friends.
The funeral will be held at 1 p.m. Saturday, January 20, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints – Burley 3rd Ward, located at 2200 Oakley Avenue, in Burley.
Burial will follow at Pleasant View Cemetery in Burley. Family and friends will be received from 5 until 7 p.m. Friday, January 19, at Rasmussen-Wilson Funeral Home, 1350 E. 16th St., in Burley, and from noon until 12:45 p.m. Saturday, preceding the funeral, at the church.

POCATELLO — A familiar restaurant space in the Costco parking lot has a fresh new concept.
The owners of the former Kingpot Korean BBQ & Hot Pot have rebranded and reopened as Super Yummy Bowl Mongolian Grill, offering a quicker, more affordable dining experience while keeping some of the flavors customers came to love.
Owner Bing Yang and restaurant manager Josh Gonzales closed Kingpot in February. While the interactive, cook-it-yourself concept had built a loyal following, they said it ultimately wasn’t the best long-term fit for the Pocatello market.
Kingpot Korean BBQ & Hot Pot to close, plans new restaurant
“We had no complaints about the food at Kingpot, and we’re grateful for the community’s support,” Yang said. “But we learned this will be a better business model for Pocatello.”
The new concept focuses on a traditional Mongolian grill format, where customers build their own bowls by selecting from a variety of fresh vegetables, meats, tofu and sauces. The dishes are then cooked to order, allowing for a fast, customizable meal.
Yang, who has a background in Asian cuisine, said he developed several of the restaurant’s signature sauces and recipes. Popular flavors from Kingpot, including bulgogi and spicy garlic, are still on the menu.
The shift also brings a lower price point. Bowls range from about $11 to $16, making the restaurant an affordable and accessible option for a wide range of diners.
“The food is all prepped and ready to go, so meals come out quickly — especially for people on their lunch break,” Gonzales said.
Ying added that the concept is designed to appeal to a variety of dietary preferences, whether customers are looking for vegetarian options or protein-packed meals.
The menu also includes appetizers, such as egg rolls and pot stickers, and desserts like cheesecakes and fried ice cream.
The restaurant has retained its bar, offering beer, wine and pre-mixed cocktails.
Super Yummy Bowl is currently in a soft opening phase, with an official grand opening planned for a later date. The business is also continuing to hire and encourages those interested to apply in person at 1599 Yellowstone Ave., or online through Indeed.
Hours are 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday, and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sunday.
“Hopefully this new business model fits the community better, and we’re here to stay,” Gonzales said.

CANYON COUNTY, Idaho (CBS2) — An Idaho man has been sentenced to 25 years in prison after being convicted of possessing child sexual abuse material, including images generated using artificial intelligence, according to the Idaho Attorney General’s Office.
Attorney General Raúl Labrador announced that James Anthony Halma, 27, was convicted of two counts of Sexual Exploitation of a Child by Possession of Sexually Exploitative Material (Child Pornography) and one count of Possession of Generated AI CSAM. Sexual Exploitation of a Child by Possession of Sexually Exploitative Material is a felony punishable by up to 10 years in prison. Possession of Generated AI CSAM is a felony punishable by up to five years in prison.
Halma was sentenced on March 12 by Canyon County District Court Judge Gabriel McCarthy. McCarthy sentenced Halma to a total of 25 years in prison and ordered that he be eligible for parole after three years. Halma will be required to register as a sex offender under Idaho law.
The case began in October 2024, when the Internet Crimes Against Children Unit received a CyberTip indicating that a Kik account, later identified as belonging to Halma, had files containing child sexual abuse material. After obtaining search warrants, officers seized Halma’s digital devices.
Forensic examiners from the Office of the Attorney General located about 100 files containing child sexual abuse material on Halma’s phone, depicting the sexual abuse of children under the age of 16 and as young as 3 being sexually abused.
“Every arrest and conviction our team gets in these deeply disturbing cases helps make Idaho communities safer,” Labrador said. “I’m proud of the continued work by our ICAC investigators, prosecutors, and local law enforcement partners across the state who help in our mission to protect Idaho families and hold these criminals accountable.”
