outdoorsman, Mendenhall was a 6th generation cattle rancher on
Palomar Mountain and the part owner of the Homegrown Cattle
Company, Homegrown Meats, My Country Club Hunting Ranch, and the
La Jolla Butcher Shop. He lost his life in a tragic ranching
accident in September 2013, at the age of 30. Mendenhall is
survived by his wife Jenna and three young daughters.
