Mourna Repetto Obituary

Fancesca lived all over California growing up - her parents, Mourna and Frank, owned different bars and restaurants. She had one sister, Mae, and 3 brothers - Carlo, Herschel (Sunny), and Bob. She has nieces and nephews from Montana to California, Idaho and Oregon.

She married Jim Stugelmeyer Sr in 1962 They had 3 kids, Jim Jr. (Brenda - Buffy), David, and Tammy (Dan). They had 7 grandchildren, Jaymee, DJ, Beau, Nick, Cole, Jake, Ella; and 3 great grandkids, Tristen, Xander, Nolan, with another on the way. Francesca was working on a blanket for the baby.

She married Allen Kunselman on September 9, 1995 and inherited two more boys, Lee (Heather) and Luke (Emily). She welcomed 4 more grandkids, Jax, Owen, Lily, Mia.

Francesca loved her family dearly. She was also a creative soul, with many interests throughout her life. She was a fabulous cook. She was proud of her Italian heritage and made wonderful Italian dishes, including her famous tiramisu. If you didn't get enough, it was your own fault. She was an excellent seamstress, and even sewed wedding dresses. She made beautiful handmade cards with her friend Rosie. In recent years, she started making jewelry with her friend Beau. She even belly danced throughout her life, including belly dancing at Allen's divorce party! She also had a gardener's touch, and took such pride in her hibiscus flowers, roses and clematis. Her favorite flower was her dark red hibiscus and purple clematis. Allen taught her to ride a motorcycle. She loved her '95 Sportster 1200. She loved to ride with Allen and his friends on weekends.

Francesca had recently returned from visiting her nieces and nephews in Montana. She got a kick out of the little banty rooster that chased bugs all over the place.

In 2018, she and Allen took the trip of a lifetime to Italy, home of her ancestors. They visited Rome, Milan, and even went to the town in northern Italy where her dad grew up.

More than anything, Francesca knew how to live and enjoy life. She will be deeply missed.

The family will honor Francesca's life privately.
