John Patrick Bruner

Mr. John Patrick Bruner, 19, of Dalton, passed away suddenly Saturday, Aug. 4, 2007, in Chattanooga, Tenn.

He was a 2006 graduate of Dalton High School, where he was captain of his cross-country regional championship team; was an Eagle Scout and was attending Georgia College and State University in Milledgeville.

He was preceded in death by his grandfather, James Denis Grimes, in 2001.

John is survived by his loving family, parents, Greg and Margie Bruner of Dalton; sister, Megan Bruner; and brother, Andrew Bruner both of Dalton; grandparents, Patricia Grimes Smith and E. Wayne Smith of Nashville, Tenn., John and Lois Bruner of Winchester, Tenn.; aunts and uncles, Kathleen and Luis Chau of Chicago, Ill., Denis and Melissa Grimes of Jackson, Tenn., James and Vellisse Grimes of Miami, Fla., John Grimes of Knoxville, Tenn., Cindy and Miles Springer of Port Ochard, Wash., Diane and Michael Hoover of Manchester, Tenn.; cousins, Ellen Grimes and Laura Grimes both of Jackson, Amanda Grimes and Austin Grimes of Knoxville, Victoria Chau and Rebecca Chau of Chicago, Olivia Grimes of Miami, Logan Stec of Port Ochard, Daniel Hoover, Christopher Hoover and McKenna Hoover all of Manchester; special friends, Alison Woodworth, Devon and Tommy Brooks, all of Dalton.

Services are today at 10:30 a.m. at the St. Joseph's Catholic church with Father Dexter Brewer and Father J. D. Triujillo officiating.

Burial will be in Poplar Springs Cemetery.

The family received friends at Love Funeral Home Tuesday.

In lieu of flowers, the family request memorials be made to the Boy Scouts of America N. W. Ga. Council, Inc., P.O. Box 1422, Rome, GA 30162-1422 or to the Dalton Education Foundation, P.O. Box 1408, Dalton, GA 30722-1408.

To plant a tree in memory of John Patrick Bruner, please visit Tribute Store.

He was a runner and a brother — a son, a teammate and a friend.

Most importantly he believed in having faith, and this weekend at Camp Sidney Dew the Boy Scouts and community honored John Patrick Bruner as a person to be looked up to and an example to be followed.

Friends and family of John gathered at a newly built Eagle Chapel at the Boy Scout Camp to dedicate it to his memory — and the memories of all the young men who hiked the trail to Eagle Scout.

John, a graduate of Dalton High School and rising sophomore at Georgia College and State University, was awarded the rank of Eagle Scout in 2006.
