Obituary of Barbara Bonello
Barb is preceded in death by her husband, Frank. Survived by her large loving family.
Barb was a graduate of Southwest High School and attended the University of Minnesota where she was a member of the Gamma Phi Beta Sorority. Barb was a wonderful homemaker and gracious host. Whether at home, the cabin or their place in Florida, she created a warm welcoming environment for family and friends. Barb and Frank loved to play bridge and did so well into their later years. They traveled the world and had many friends. We will miss her warm smile and irreverent sense of humor, which she passed on to her children and grandchildren.
A special thanks to her care team at Friendship Village in Bloomington, as well as Park Nicollet Hospice, who took care of her during her final days. We are grateful to all of you for your kindness.
Private burial. Memorials preferred to donor's choice.
