Melissa Ann Touchberry, 60, of Arnold, died peacefully on Saturday, August 9, 2025.

She was born in Freiburg im Breisgau, Germany on January 6, 1965 to John and Elaine F. Griglak Touchberry, and was a 1983 graduate of Valley High School.

Melissa was an Operating Room Technician at several local hospitals.

Surviving are her daughter Bailie Guida of New Kensington; brother, Chad Touchberry of Kansas; and grandchildren Ashton "AJ" Guida and Brilee Baczynski.

My mother is remembered by friends and family as being a kind, brave and loving woman. She loved her grandchildren more than anything. She is finally home and resting with her cat, Nemo. She will be missed beyond measure! "I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living my mommy you'll be."

Professional services were entrusted to ROSS G. WALKER FUNERAL HOME LTD., of New Kensington.
