Brunone, and her sister Beatrice Rolling, she is survived by her sister Brenda (Ernest) Saputelli, brother Ronald Milano, daughters Pamela (Jack) Concannon, Adrienne (John) Klecha, Beth (Jeffrey) Marshall, and Melissa (late John) Ries, as well as eight grandchildren, one great grandchild and a second on the way.
