Melinda Ann Bono born on July 25, 1956 of Newton/Chestnut Hill Massachusetts, passed away unexpectedly on June 22, 2026.
She is survived by her only sister, Lauren Cabrelli of Newton MA./Lakewood Ranch FL. (Albert Cabrelli) and her beloved nephew, Jordan 22 and niece Paceykate 21. Melinda's baby sister was born when she was 12 years old—she absolutely loved assuming the role of being her second Mother.
In 2003 and 2005, she became an aunt. She was over the moon having a niece and nephew, they both truly made her proud.
Melinda was preceded in death by both of her parents, all three passing within the last year and a half.
Melinda graduated on the Deans List from the University of Miami in 1978.
She was a quiet and private person, who kept her circle small but definitely loved to chat it up. She enjoyed her soap operas, watching and recording her shows, spending time on the computer, shopping for skincare, makeup, and treating herself to manicures and pedicures.
Melinda's gentle spirit and kind nature will be deeply missed. Her family finds comfort in their faith, believing she is now at peace for eternity.
