Valerie Bruno

PRICE/HOUSTON, Texas - Valerie Lynn Bruno was born June 5, 1958 to Pete and Doris Bruno.

A beloved daughter, sister, niece, aunt, cousin, and friend, Valerie had a unique love for life, which she shared by serving others. She delighted in knitting handmade toys, afghans and clothing for her dear family members and she sported a playful personality that made her every child’s best friend.

Valerie’s service also extended to reading to children with disabilities and contributing her talents to the Humanitarian Center and Newborns in Need. Her open arms and selfless attitude made each person in her life feel special and loved.

Valerie graduated from the University of Utah in drama. For over 20 years, she was a dedicated employee for the Williams Company, a home to many valued friends and co-workers whom the family thanks for offering great support in Valerie’s life and in her passing.

Valerie had a strong belief in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and had a testimony in the Savior. Her faith offers peace at her passing on June 9, 2008 from a sudden illness, which allowed her to offer more service in being a donor to others.

Valerie is survived by her father, Pete Bruno; Dale Marx; Shirlie (Greg) VanWagoner; Marilyn (Dean) Harmon; Joan (Darrell) Keller; Doug Bruno; and many loved nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her mother, Doris Bruno; and her sister, Doris Marx.

Her family would like to thank those who brought joy to her life and Pioneer Hospital for their attentive care. Thank you also to the Price 1st LDS Ward for their help at this time.

Funeral services will be Saturday, June 14, at 11 a.m. at the Price Utah LDS Stake Center, 150 South 500 East. Viewing will be Friday, June 13, from 6 to 8 p.m. at Fausett Mortuary, 680 East 100 South in Price, and from 10 to 10: 45 a.m. prior to the service at the stake center.
