Mrs. Anna Bono
Frankfort - Mrs. Anna Bono, 92, formerly of E. Orchard St passed away Wednesday, September 26, 2007 in Masonic Home.
She was born in Montelepre, Province of Palermo, Sicily on August 28, 1915, the daughter of the late Giacomo and the late Angela Licari De Leone and she attended schools there. She was married to Vincent Bono on December 28, 1936 in Montelepre. The Bono family came to this country in 1954 and settled in Frankfort. Mr. Bono passed away on September 17, 1997 after a blessed union of 60 years. She was a communicant of Our Lady Queen of Apostles Church and a member of the Addolorata Society. Mrs. Bono will always be remembered as a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She was the epitome of what a grandmother should be, always tending to the care and nurturing of children. Anna loved being surrounded by her family and the time she spent in the kitchen cooking for them. Her greatest joy was in hand knitting afghans for every member of the family. Each one of us has a cherished memento of "Grandma Bono."
