Deceased Name: Marvin Ray Bronson Our beloved husband, father, grandfather, great-grandfather, brother, cousin and friend, Marvin (Marv) Ray Bronson passed away Thursday, Aug. 21, 2008, surrounded by his loving family. Marv was born Jan. 19, 1931 in Almo, Idaho to Wesley Reid and Margery Taylor Bronson. He graduated from Raft River High School in Malta, Idaho in 1950. He served a mission in the Central Atlantic States LDS Mission. He served mostly in Virginia and was a missionary his whole life. After his return he spent 18 months teaching in the Salt Lake City LDS Mission, and later taught religion classes at the Utah State Prison. He met his wife, Sonja Lee Memmott (formerly of Scipio, Utah) at an M-Men and Gleaners Gold and Green Ball in 1956 and they were married Oct. 11, 1956 in the Logan LDS Temple. Marv was bigger than life, making a difference in the life of everyone he met. He loved spending time with his family; coaching his sons in baseball; teaching his daughters to drive stick-shifts; and teasing and tickling his grandchildren. He spent many hours waterskiing with his friends and family, taking them horseback riding, camping and hunting. He was a true cowboy with a love of horses which he shared with his children in the beautiful cabin at Sports Haven where they spent their summers growing up. Marv was a master salesman, a lifelong missionary, and a friend to everyone. Because of his love for people, young and old, his greatest satisfaction was when he witnessed the success and accomplishments of those he may have had an influence upon. Marv was an active member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He and his beautiful wife served in whatever capacity they were called and have had a diverse and powerful influence in their circle of friends and family. Marv's stories, jokes and sermons will be greatly missed by all of us who have heard them a hundred times and would gladly have heard them a hundred more. He was a tremendous man with a generous heart and a wise countenance. He was like a brilliant streak of light across our sky and, while he will be sorely missed here in mortality, we are so happy for the reunion he must be having through the thin veil that separates worlds. If we listen close we're sure we can hear the strains of "Beautiful, Beautiful Brown Eyes," "You Are My Sunshine" and "Sweet Violets" accompanied by his father's piano, as that Silver-Haired Daddy of Ours joins in harmony with the music of those celebrating his arrival in the halls of Heaven.

Marv is survived by his wife, Sonja; children: Shirley (Lloyd) Westenskow, Connie (Butch) Dailey, David (Donna) Bronson, Kelly (Tracy) Bronson, Darin (Katherine) Bronson, Mitch (Patricia) Bronson, Travis Bronson, Jason (Jessica) Bronson 52 grandchildren and 36 great-grandchildren and four foster great-great grandchildren; sister Rada Hutchison, brothers JG Bronson and Herman Bronson; sisters-in-law Mary Bronson and Gwen Bronson.

Preceded in death by parents; brothers Owen and Jerry; sister Doris Ann; daughter Stacey Lee Bronson; daughter-in-law: Karen Lynn Remigi Bronson and foster-great-grandson Corwin Kenneth Gurney.
