Bio

PRICE-Mary Jane Gilbert Jarvis Berneche, 78, of Price passed away on Thursday, August 20, 2015. Born on June 17, 1937 in Standardville, Utah, Jane was the youngest child and only girl of Namon Bernie and Mary Etta Snyder Gilbert. Her family lived in several of the coal towns in Spring Canyon until 1942 when they moved to Price. She graduated from Carbon High in 1955 and married Lawrence Jarvis. They had three children. In 1964, she and Lawrence divorced and Jane moved with her three children to Las Vegas. They moved to Savannah, Georgia in 1968 before making their way back to Price in 1970. In 1971 she married Ronald Berneche, and joined her family with his two sons. Together she and Ron had one daughter and adopted another child. As a resident of Price for most of her life, Jane was very active in her local community and proud to be from Carbon County. She was a lifelong member of Price United Methodist Church. For many years she owned the Red Balloon Children's Clothing Store on Main Street and was a member of the Carbon County Chamber of Commerce. In 1991 Jane became a licensed realtor. She served on the Carbon Emery Board of Realtors for many years and held every office on the Board, including Director. She served as the Vice President of the Carbon Emery Habitat for Humanity for eight years. Jane was passionate about helping people find and afford homes, and especially took great pleasure in working with Habitat for Humanity families. As a realtor she worked tirelessly for her clients, always going above and beyond the job to help her clients - all of whom she considered her friend. Jane volunteered with Relay for Life for several years, making gallons of her homemade spaghetti sauce for the pre-race pasta dinner. Most important to Jane was her family, and if you stayed for dinner at her house more than once you were family. She adored her grandchildren and great children. She especially enjoyed taking them to the movies, to the Dinosaur Museum, and for ice cream. Jane is survived by her children, Viki Jarvis Bowman; Brad (Peggy) Jarvis; Ronald (Valery) Berneche; Benjamin (Sonia) Berneche; Brione Berneche Pattison; Kristy Berneche Hardman; and daughter-in-law Janie Jarvis. She is also survived by 12 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren, two special sisters-in-law - Shirley Gilbert and Arlene Gilbert, and many nieces and nephews. She is preceded in death by her four brothers - Glinn, Charles, Ralph and Billy Gilbert; husband, Ronald Berneche; son, John Jarvis; and granddaughter, Sharon Jarvis. Funeral services will be Wednesday, August 26, 2015, 11:00 a.m. at Mitchell Funeral Home (233 East Main Street) in Price. The family will receive friends at Mitchell's one hour prior to the service. Interment to follow at Price City Cemetery. Arrangements entrusted to Mitchell Funeral Home of Price. -Mitchell Funeral Home
