Rose Marie Artale Bruno

Rose Marie graduated from Hueytown High School. She was married to Pat A. Bruno on April 13, 1984.

Rose Marie retired from the State Farm Insurance regional office in Birmingham as an insurance underwriter. She was a member of St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church, and enjoyed spending time with her grandchildren, growing in her Catholic faith, watching "Days of Our Lives," traveling through Italy, and relaxing at the beach.

In addition to Pat, Rose Marie is survived by her two children, Kristina Bruno and Patrick Bruno (Catherine); two grandchildren, Ella Bruno and Christopher Bruno; and one sister, Mary Ellen Martin (Paul).

For the safety of everyone, the family will have a private service.

In lieu of flowers, the family encourages memorial gifts to St. Mark the Evangelist Catholic Church (www.stmarkrc.org), St. Jude Children's Research Hospital (www.stjude.org), or Ronald McDonald House Charities of Alabama (www.rmhca.org).
