Our loving mother, sister, grandmother, and aunt, Jennie Guercio Barton−a longtime resident of Orem, Utah−passed away peacefully in her sleep at the age of 87. Jennie was born in Bingham Canyon, Utah on February 5, 1931, the daughter of Francisco and Carmella Fata Guercio. Jennie graduated from Provo High School in 1949. She met the love of her life working at the 24 Hour Cafe in Provo, Utah, and married Frank B. Barton on March 19, 1954. As a young mother she worked at First Security Bank. She later worked at Geneva Elementary as a lunch lady. She enjoyed spending time with family, camping, cooking and baking cakes, going on road trips, and loved her coffee and Diet Coke.
