HART, Melinda "Mindy"
It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that their family announces the passing of Melinda and her unborn daughter, Rowan, due to a tragic automobile accident on October 14, 2013. Mindy was born September 5, 1986 in Farmington, and resided in Bristol. She is a beloved and cherished daughter of Sandra (Dunham) Hart of Bristol and Wallace Hart, Sr. of Manchester. She is survived by her precious children, Caleb Hart, and Collin and Casey Muscillo and their father Patrick; brother Wally and son Dustin, all of Bristol; and maternal grandparents Arthur and Leona Dunham of Manchester. She also leaves an aunt, Patrica (Dunham) Russo and husband Joe of Manchester, aunt Sandy (Hart) Dubay and daughter Nina of Bristol, uncle Phillip Dunham and partner Alison of Tolland and uncle Keith Dunham, wife Chelle and son, Malachi of Blaine, WA. She also leaves auntie Carol (Pacitto) and Ellyn Hoyt, both of Bristol who were a special part of her life. Mindy's greatest joy in life were her children. She loved being a mother and built many happy memories her children will be able to carry with them forever. Mindy was a registered organ donor and her mother ensured that this wish was carried out with the highest hopes that Mindy will be giving life, hope and joy to others that their families not know the heartache that has entered her families hearts and home. Mindy always encouraged others to become Organ Donors.
A memorial service will be held Saturday, Oct. 26 at 3 p.m. at First Congregational Church, 993 Main St., South Windsor. Burial will follow at Center Cemetery, South Windsor. Her family will receive friends, Friday, Oct. 25 from 5-8 p.m. at Samsel & Carmon Funeral Home, 419 Buckland Road, South Windsor. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations may be made to The Melinda Hart Children Education Fund c/o Rockville Bank, 1645 Ellington Road, South Windsor, CT 06074.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I knew Mindy as a young girl when she would visit her father. She was a cute little girl and well behaved. May God be with you in your time of sorrow and give you peace.
