Bonnie 'Delores' Price Green

Jan. 17, 1933 - Nov. 8, 2023

Date of Service: Nov. 13, 2023

BURLEY – On November 8, 2023, surrounded by her loving family, Delores passed away peacefully after suffering a stroke a few days prior.

Delores is the daughter of Charles Rulon and Mabel Knight Price and was the oldest of six children. She graduated from Burley High School in 1951 and soon thereafter married her high school sweetheart, Dan G Green, on June 12, 1952, in the Idaho Falls Idaho Temple.

Delores loved music. She sang often throughout her life, beginning at the age of three when her Granddaddy Price would have her sing for the customers at the original Price’s Café. In high school she sang in duets, trios etc. She had the leading role in the operetta “Rose of the Danube.” She continued singing throughout her life with several groups including Sweet Adelines, Variations, and ward and stake choirs. Some of her hobbies included sewing, writing poetry, and art.

She loved everyone, and was blessed with many wonderful, lifelong friends. Her greatest joy was her family. She was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, and aunt, and treasured each of these relationships.

As a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, she will be remembered as being obedient, faithful, enduring and full of light. Having a deep and abiding love for our Savior Jesus Christ, she served faithfully in many Church callings including Primary, Young Women, and Relief Society. She and Dan served as stake and ward missionaries, sharing their love and testimonies at every opportunity. Together, they loved the temple and attended often, as well as serving eight years in the Boise Idaho Temple as ordinance workers.

Delores worked in several schools including Miller, Southwest, Mountain View, and Declo Elementaries and Burley Junior High School. Her most rewarding position was as a paraprofessional helping children learn how to read. Her love of guiding and shaping children’s lives was expressed by welcoming foster children through the Indian Placement Program.

She is survived by her adoring children, Kim Alan Green of Burley, Michael Dan Green (Becky) of Brea, Calif., Kathy Lynn Green of Salt Lake City, Utah, and Lisa Kay (Wallace) Blacker of Heyburn; 18 grandchildren; 57 great-grandchildren; brothers, Gary (Rosemary) Price and Wayne (Lorraine) Price; and sisters, Kay (Dan) Black, Connie (Jim) Radford and Julie (Steve) Bailey.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Dan G Green; their infant daughter, Janet Sue Green; and her parents, Rulon and Mabel Price.

The funeral will be held at 11 a.m. Monday, November 13, at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints - Burley Idaho West Stake Center, located at 2420 Parke Avenue, in Burley. Burial will follow at Gem Memorial Gardens in Burley.

Family and friends will be received from 4 until 6 p.m. Sunday, November 12, at Rasmussen-Wilson Funeral Home, 1350 E. 16th St., in Burley, and from 10 until 10:45 a.m. Monday, at the church, preceding the funeral.

From Kirsten Rice:

I remember your mom was so kind and loving. Just like you Lisa. She raised you all well. Sorry for your loss.

From Donna & Tony Rietveld:

This is a memory of both your Mom and Dad. We lived in Burley for just a short time but fell in love with the area and the wonderful people we met there. Some of them became life-long friends, like your Mom and Dad. We picnicked on Pomerelle and, of course, visited Rock City along with many other excursions. When we moved back to Wisconsin we stayed in touch by phone, and Delores and Dan became those kind of friends who you knew were always there no matter how long between conversations and trips. They were angels in our lives....the best people this world offers....forever in our hearts.

From Jean Hamblen:

I first met Delores when we both attended mutual in the Burley 1st Ward. Many years later we served as visiting teacher companions in the 5th Ward. Delores was always so kind. I am sad to hear of her passing. Sending love, hugs and prayers to her loved ones.

Loved being in the Burley 5th Ward with Sister Green. She was full of light. Great to be around.

Delores was my 7th grade “girlfriend.” Then my parents moved to Jerome and Dan won. About 8 years ago I met Delores at the elevator in the Ogden temple and she remembered me. What a choice coincidence. Kay, drop me an email and hear the rest of the story.

From Kevin Price:

I remember my Aunt Delores when I was little and staying with Grandpa and Grandma Price in Burley and attending kindergarten,every time I would come to visit in the mornings to play with cousin Lisa Aunt Delores would smile and tell me how nice I looked and always made me feel good about myself I just always felt loved. I love and miss my Aunt Delores so very much and hope to see her and Uncle Dan again some day.

From Tracy and Ella Tolman:

There is sorrow because sister Green won't be with us on earth, she will be missed. Her sweet presence and strong testimony always warmed our heart. But she is happy now with her husband. Our heartfelt condolences to the family.
