Ross 'Buddy' Brunetti
February 13, 1933 - March 3, 2021
In Loving Memory
Oh heavens, Ross and Alecia, just found this. What a legacy. Blessings to you both and to the extended family. I am deeply saddened, and yes, I too still miss Connie. Such fond memories of you all and the kind look on the photo here of Ross Sr. just warms my heart. I remember the jokes, the stories, skiing, our dads palling around and mom's lunching. What a great family and yes, he lived a very full life. Love you much, and may your hearts be at peace, may your prayers be answered, and we are sending you hugs and sympathy. I will say a rosary for Ross and Connie this week. Love Peyton and Paula

We are sorry to learn of your father and grandfather’s passing. May you find solace in knowing Buddy is free of pain, free of sorrows, and is living peacefully and eternally with God. May God console you in your grief.
Remember the good times!
With sincere sympathy and prayers.

We are so sorry about losing Ross. I am still missing Connie as well. Our friendship goes all the way back to our college years and had great memories of those days. Our heartfelt sympathies,

Alicia and Rossi,
I am deeply saddened at the passing of Uncle Ross; even though life has separated us the past few years, he and Aunt Sissy were always a constant presence in my life and heart.
I'm sorry for your loss, he was a wonderful, kind man. I was at his favorite deli in San Francisco last week, it made me smile as I thought of his stories of the place and of his friend, the owner. He always had a story, and a friend wherever he went.
All my best,
-Hydee & family

Doc, sorry to hear about your Dad. Not hard to see where you got your drive, personality, and motivation. Would have loved to hear some of your dad’s stories over a Scotch or two.

The wisest thing Uncle Ross ever did was to send me over to get a pretty girl’s name at the wrestling matches some 65+ years ago. The dye was cast at that moment because that pretty girl had me sit with her until Uncle Ross had to come and get me. Score one for wiser Aunt Connie. Kris and I and our entire family, that now numbers 25 loving souls, will really miss you Uncle Ross and dearly love you. Dr Ross, Alicia and your families our love and prayers are with you forever.

Ross, sorry to hear about your loss. Even when it is expected it leaves a void that is hard to fill. Theirs was a great generation and hopefully we can pass some of what they taught us to others. Let me know if I can help with anything. Ciao, Jamie

65 years ago, Ross, we all met at the Fairgrounds to watch Uncle Joe and your brother, Guy, wrestle; think that was the night you met Sissy. Lots of memories and good times since; give her our love when you see her, later.

Ross and Alicia, I just wanted to send my condolences on the loss of your dad. I remember him well from the ol St. Vincent days. I remember riding the bus with both of you and the drop off at your house not far from ours. And I remember that my parents were so excited to get some of the seeds from his Roma tomatoes.
I don't know how so much time has passed since we all graduated and moved forward in life.
All my love and from my family (The whole Kirts family)

I will always remember Uncle Ross the jokester. Always lovingly teasing me with a smile on his face. I am so glad to have had special one on one time with him in recent years hearing stories from growing up in Bingham Canyon and Midvale. Oh what a reunion he is having with the love of his life and family. Much love to Ross Jr and Alicia.

My sincere condolences on the departure of our beloved friend, lovely husband and devout man. Now he is reunited with his “little bride” in paradise. Love and prayers to the entire family.

Two of my favorite memories of Uncle Ross involve food of course! Eating Basque food in Elko with Aunt Connie and Pasta and beer at hoppers with Jay... To food, family and love Uncle Ross. Say hello to everyone. See you soon
