John Joseph Bruno, age 5, passed away on March 18, 2017 surrounded by family. John is the loving son of Francis Bruno, Jr. and Tara (nee Cannon) and the little brother, aka partner in crime, to Abigail. John is also survived by his maternal grandmother Joan (nee Keyes) Cannon as well as nephew to Scott (Kelly) Bruno and Kristie Bruno, cousin to Nolan and Aubrey.
