Bonnie Jean “Jingles” Culler Limone, beloved sister, aunt and friend, passed away peacefully on December 8, 2023 in Lehi, Utah at the age of 77, after a lengthy battle with many health conditions.
She was a long-time resident of Price Utah, only moving to American Fork five years ago to live with family as her health declined.
Bonnie was born on August 26, 1946 in Alamosa, Colorado. She was the first child of Frank and Pearl Culler. She was born on the same day as her cousin Kay and enjoyed having a “twin cousin.” Bonnie was a tiny baby and not expected to live, but due to the care of her angel mother, she thrived. Bonnie was the oldest of six children and a great help in raising her younger siblings. She did very well in school and went on to be a successful special educator in the Carbon School District after graduating from Adams State University.
Bonnie married Richard Limone in 1975. They enjoyed going fishing together and were always bantering with one another. Bonnie taught special education for 30 years. She helped students participate in Special Olympics and attain their full potential. Bonnie was an active member of the Daughters of Utah Pioneers for many years. She was also a member of the Helper Business and Professional Women, American legion unit. Bonnie was an avid and talented crafter. She enjoyed crocheting, knitting, embroidery and plastic canvas. Many homes are graced with her handiwork. She was a very good cook, enough so that she won some prizes at the county fair. Bonnie was very musically inclined and was often asked to lead the singing in church.
Bonnie was very practically minded and always made sure things were organized and people were taken care of. In fact, she requested when arranging her affairs, that in lieu of flowers, people use the money to take themselves out for a nice dinner.
She is survived by her siblings, Frank (PeggyAnn) Culler, Peggy (Norm) Wilkinson, Sally (Stewart) Wise, Tom (Sandy) Culler, Rick (Suzanne) Culler; and sister-in-law, Nora Larsen. She is also survived by many nieces and nephews.
Bonnie is preceded in death by her husband, Richard; and her parents, Frank and Pearl Culler.
