Bernolfo, Marie O.
Marie O. Bernolfo "Soar Forever Free" Marie Odell Bamberger Bernolfo, daughter
of a pioneering Utah mining family and great niece of Governor Simon
Bamberger, died June 21, 2005, at her home in Holladay, Utah. The eldest child
of Clarence G. Bamberger and Marie Odell Bamberger, she was born in Salt Lake
City, October 9, 1917 against the backdrop of World War I and the Russian
Revolution. She lived through the trials, triumphs and enormous scientific
advances of the 20th century. Her father's friendship with Dr. Jonas Salk led
to her children being among the first to receive polio vaccinations in hopes
of vanquishing this great childhood scourge. Educated at Rowland Hall, Vassar
College and Stanford University, she married Joseph E. Bernolfo Jr. on June
20, 1940 as World War II was looming. She was a tennis player, skier, and
member of the Salt Lake Country Club Women's Golf Team. Moreover, she was an
equestrienne of great skill. The walls of her barn were adorned with ribbons
won, regularly besting the young cavalry officers in competition at the Fort
Douglas Horse Shows. Her quiet philanthropies both personal and through the
Bamberger- Allen Foundation were directed towards the less fortunate in our
community. She volunteered her time and consideration with grace to many
deserving causes including, reading to the blind, helping at the Craft House
and serving as a Hospital Pink Lady. She was also a member of the Salt Lake
Junior League. Enhancing the beauty of our world through gardening gave her
great pleasure. She was surrounded by the flowers and trees of her Holladay
home and the creation of her Pebble Beach flower gardens. Her love of animals
was legendary. Throughout her life, dogs and cats were at her side and horses
were not far away. She was an ardent advocate for their well being. Fluent in
four languages and widely traveled, she lived her life by the precept: "Face a
l'evenement c'est a soi-meme que recourt l'homme de caractere", ("Faced with
crisis, the man of character falls back on himself'). She never lost her sense
of self or of the times in which she lived. Believing that lack of effort and
ignorance were the worst shortcomings one could have, she was an avid reader
throughout her life. With wit and imagination, she nurtured many friendships
of substance and zest. A lady of elegance and joie de vivre, she was
instinctively devoted to her family. She cared for both of her parents, her
husband, and her aunt, Dorothy B. Allen with love and concern. Her beloved
grandchildren Dylan Rothwell (Erin) and Ashley Rothwell (Christian Draayer)
gave her an unwavering sense of joy. She loved her sons Joseph E. Bernolfo
III, and David W. Bernolfo (Leslie) and her cherished companion and daughter,
Gloria B. Rothwell and husband Hank Rothwell. Preceded in death by beloved
sister Gloria Bamberger. Survived by brother Clarence Bamberger Jr.,
sister-in-law Vivian McCarthy and nieces and nephews and their children who
all felt her love and generosity. Our family wishes to thank the many
caregivers who assisted our mother. Especially, the staff and doctors of St.
Marks Hospital 3rd and 4th floors, west wing, Community Nursing Services
Hospice, Dr. Mariani, Portia Jones, Dr. Kurrus, Dr. Difiori, Rosie Conder, Dr.
Beck and Dr. Crandall. Private family services were held on June 24th at Mount
Olivet Cemetery. Memorial contributions to Utah Cancer Specialists, Moran Eye
Center, Community Nursing Services or a charity of your choice are suggested.

Peterson, Joseph LeRoy
Joseph LeRoy Peterson "Pete" 10/2/1913 ~ 6/24/2005 "J.L." was born above his
father, J. Ulrich Peterson's blacksmith shop at 45 No. 2nd West to his mother,
Annie Goffe Peterson. They instilled a sense of honor and fairness that guided
him throughout his life. Inquisitive and industrious, he later loved to ski
from Black Mountain, through the S.L. Cemetery to their home in 4th Avenue
after school. He completed the family encyclopedia by age 12 and loved
exploring the dictionary. Excelling in academia and possessed of a deeply
competitive drive, he taught math and won tennis and horseshoe championships
while a student at West High School. His industry found him ready with all the
savings needed to pay for his university studies, only to see it disappear in
a bank failure in the crush of the Great Depression. He made it through by
playing sax and clarinet in a dance group throughout Utah and Idaho, and
graduated with a degree in Engineering. This fostered the invention of the
Agitaire Flotation Device, which revolutionized the extraction and refining of
minerals throughout the world. His later projects could be found the world
over. During World War II he developed Uranium Concentration Technology. He
was Intermountain Director of the National Ski Patrol for 16 years. He
designed ski lifts in Utah and Wyoming, and skied until age 85. Loving his
work among the mining sites of the West, he camped along the way and became
intimately familiar with fishing at its finest. He loved golf, and had as many
friends as a four handicap would allow at Hidden Valley Country Club. He
claimed that his best lifetime achievement was winning the hand of Nelda
Kathryn "Katie" Pedersen and marrying her on February 10, 1937 in Salt Lake
City. They had five children: Ronald L. (Marcia), Salt Lake City, UT; Laguna
Niguel, CA; Dennis R. (Claudia-"My Best Girl"), Bountiful, UT; Kathryn "Kris"
(Greg) Hunter, Salt Lake City, UT; Melinda Ann, Pocatello, Idaho; Wendy Rae
(Bill) Kirk, Oklahoma City, OK. He had 13 grandchildren and five
great-grandchildren. He is survived by his siblings, Edna (Walter) Price,
Dorothy LaVern (Milton) Brooks and Vernon Peterson. He is reunited with his
siblings Virginia Lucille Peterson, Leona Isabella Peterson, A. June (Robert)
Heist, Lawrence Alan (Inez) Peterson and Myrtle Aileen (Kenneth) Allen and
Howard Peterson. Services will be held on Wednesday, June 29, 2005 at 1:00

beloved husband of 58 years, Odis Mason (Jack) Roper who preceded her in death

15. She lost, at last, a valiant, life-long battle with the debilitating

An active member of the LDS church all of her adult life, Margaret worked and
retired from the LDS Church Genealogical Library. Throughout her life her main
church callings involved teaching others how to search out their own family

sleep on June 25, 2005 at his home in West Valley City. He was born in Salt
Lake City, Utah on July 22, 1971. James attended schools in Kearns and
received his diploma in 1989. He was employed for nearly 14 years in the
construction insulation business. He took great pride in his work and always
did his best. James loved camping, hiking and going full speed on his
four-wheeler! His one great dream was to someday find the lost Rhoades gold
mine. He spent many days exploring in caves and the Uintah mountains. We
believe James has found his gold in heaven. Most of all, James dearly loved
his family and every minute he spent with them. He also loved his
"pupperdogs"- his yellow lab, Sandy and his Sheltie collie, Apache. James was
a kind and generous man. He had a special way of lifting your spirits with his
wit, his great smile and his "big James" hugs. He will be dearly missed by all
who knew him. James is survived by his parents Jim and Dianne, Erda; sister,

Stewart Jr., Isaac Daniel
Isaac Daniel Stewart, Jr. 1932 ~ 2005 Isaac Daniel Stewart, Jr. was born
November 21, 1932 in Salt Lake City, Utah to Isaac Daniel Stewart, Sr. and
Orabelle Iverson Stewart. Dan attended East High School where he was an
outstanding scholar, avid athlete and All State football star. He attended the
University of Utah for one year on a football scholarship where he joined
Sigma Chi fraternity. From 1953 to 1956, Dan served as an LDS missionary in
the West German mission where his mastery of the German language and excellent
understanding of the religion resulted in a public speaking assignment where
he lectured at universities throughout Germany. Months before returning home,
Dan contracted polio. He spent the next year and a half in a difficult
rehabilitation at Rancho Los Amigo Hospital in California where he was
confined to an iron lung and worked to regain the most basic abilities such as
holding a pen. Returning to Utah, Dan weaned himself from a respirator and set
his sights on obtaining the finest education he could receive. In 1959, Dan
graduated with a B.A. in Political Science from the University of Utah, Phi
Beta Kappa, and was selected as class valedictorian. He then entered the
University of Utah College of Law, where he served as Editor-In-Chief of the
Law Review, was elected to the Order of the Coif, and graduated first in his
class. In 1959, Dan married the beautiful and accomplished Geraldine Elizabeth
Bryan. From 1962 to 1965, Dan worked with the United States Department of
Justice Honors Antitrust Department in Washington, D.C. Upon their return to
Utah, Dan joined the University of Utah law school faculty where he spent five
years teaching civil procedure, evidence and antitrust. He was known for
serious legal scholarship and effective teaching. From 1970-79, Dan was a
partner and managing partner at the law firm of Jones, Waldo, Holbrook &
McDonough where he enjoyed practicing major business antitrust and First
Amendment litigation. In 1979, then Governor Scott Matheson appointed Dan to
the Utah Supreme Court where he served for 21 years. Justice Stewart brought
to the court a reflective and independent legal mind. He was known for the
powerful clarity of his writing, the enormous depth of his thought and legal
analysis, and colorful and sometimes strong language used in his opinions. His
fundamental belief in the rule of law many times resulted in passionate and
courageous dissents. Justice Stewart, Dan, Danny, Uncle Dangy, Grandpa Danny,
and Dad was an extraordinary man with a superior intellect, an iron will, a
keen interest in politics, economics, books, sports, fine art and natural
beauty. He dearly loved his wife, children, and grandchildren. He had an
innate sense of playfulness that connected him to his family. Dan had a
profound faith in God and a great love for his religion and for his religious
and family heritage. He spent many hours pondering and exploring the
fundamental tenets and nuances of his religious beliefs. Danny was a self made
man. He was a man of enormous will and inner strength who exhibited courageous
stoicism in the face of the most trying circumstances. He demonstrated
extraordinary independence, speaking for what he believed to be true
regardless of others' views. He had a profound work ethic and showed shear
determination in all undertakings from the agonizing death penalty cases he
was asked to decide to, at the end, simply breathing from hour to hour.
Despite his obstacles, Dan was charismatic and quick witted, an unparalleled
conversationalist, and was a man who could light up a room with his charm and
broad smile. He understood people and particularly those in special need, the
disenfranchised and those treated unfairly. Dan was accompanied in life by his
dear bride, Elizabeth, who devotedly stood by his side. She selflessly
attended to his needs and during the last few very hard years, provided
attentive and tireless care. Dan and the family appreciate the care Dan
received from physicians, family members, friends and aids over the last 10
years without which he and Elizabeth would not have survived. He is survived
by his darling wife, Elizabeth; his daughter, Liz Stewart Whitney, and her
husband, John Larson, and their children, Rebecca Elizabeth Whitney, Madeline
Ann Whitney, Elizabeth Larson, McCall Larson and Jack Larson, and daughter,
Shannon Stewart, and her husband, Matthew Clark, and their children, Eliza
Stewart Clark, Isaac Daniel Clark, and Amelia Stewart Clark; his sisters, Mary
Louise Holbrook, Caroline Madsen, Saundra Stewart, Geraldine Waterman; and
loving nieces and nephews. Dan has finally been released and we rejoice in his
new found freedom. He is received by his mother, father, and siblings. Run
Dan. Run. Funeral services will be held Wed-nesday, June 29, 2005 at 12:30
