I lost the Love of my life on August 11, 2021. Perri was my everything. He was a beloved Husband, Father, Grandfather, Great Grandfather, Brother, Uncle and Friend he passed away peacefully at home surrounded by his family.

Perri was born in Standardville, Utah on September 18, 1950 to Dominic and LaVerl Bonino who had two brothers and three sisters. In 1954 the family moved to LeBarge, Wyoming where his favorite memories were getting sleigh rides to school, ice skating on the pond and helping on the farm. In 1960 the family moved to Granger, Utah where the family welcomed another baby sister, completing their loving family of seven siblings. This is where he started his love of raising Pigeons and Rabbits.

After graduating Granger High School in 1969 he then married Sheila Bertelsen. In 1971 they welcomed their beautiful daughter Tifani, and in 1973 their handsome son Travis. Perri loved his children more than anything.

In 1978 he met the love of his life, DiAnn (aka Daisy Duke) and with open arms, welcomed her beautiful daughter Chelsey. This is where they began their 43 year love story. Perri was a hardworking, loving man who provided for his family as a Heavy equipment mechanic. Being a small man in stature, he was a giant and master of all trades. There was nothing he couldn’t fix. Perri was the kind of man that if you met him once, you would never forget him. Perri had a magnetic personality, he would light up every room that he entered and he always made everyone laugh. Perri loved to fish, snowmobile and to ride his Harley with his sweetie. He loved his two little chihuahua’s Roxy and Ringo, they brought him so much joy. He loved the great outdoors and lived his life for “today”. All that knew him, knew he was a "Jokester" by nature, making people laugh and feel important. Making everyone smile was his gift.

Perri was Catholic in faith and very religious in his heart. He loved his family and friends and made an impact on all of those who had met him. His love and support was always felt by his wife, children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, brothers, sisters, extended family and friends. Although he has been taken too soon, we have no doubt that he is at peace in Heaven and watching over his family.

Perri is survived by his wife DiAnn McArthur Bonino, Tifani Bonino (daughter), Travis (son) and Teri Bonino, Chelsey (daughter) and Mickey Hennessee. Grandchildren: Sierra Sylvester, Alexis Dlugas, Cayden Bonino, Tanner Dlugas, and Dylan Bonino. Great Grandchildren: Grayson Alatorre, and Alynna Alatorre. Siblings: Joe and Diane Bonino, Dominic Bonino, Toni Bonino and Johnny Miller, Shauna Bonino, Naloni and Tom Tarbell, Tori Allman.

He is preceded in death by his father, Dominic Bonino (8/15/1958). Mother, LaVerl Parry Adams (1/3/1995). Step Father, Donald Adams (1/9/2019).

Services will be held on Saturday, August 21, 2021 at 11:00 am-1:00 pm at Larkin Mortuary 3688 West 12600 South, Riverton, Utah. Interment at Larkin Sunset Gardens Mausoleum at 2:00 pm at 1950 East 10600 South, Sandy, Utah.

DiAnn, I am so sorry you’ve lost Perri. Such a great loss to you and this world. I truly loved him.

I was truly saddened to hear this loss. Perri was a "regular" at our facility for many years, instructing our teams on forklift training. He ALWAYS had a smile and a story (and cookies!) to share with us when he came in! A man little in stature, but huge in heart...he will be missed by all of us. May you be blessed with love and comfort through these difficult times.
