Minnie Assalone Obituary
Besides her parents and husband, Minnie is predeceased by two sisters, Olive Spang and Denalda DeCarli.
Minnie is survived by three children, Francis (Mari) Assalone of Florida, Michele (Paul) Ashford of Wapwallopen, PA and Donna (Jerry Benevich) Assalone of Weedville; twelve grandchildren; seventeen great-grandchildren; and her brother, Theodore "Teed" Youngmark of Caledonia.
Minnie lived all her life in Bennetts Valley and was a member of the Caledonia United Methodist Church. After graduating high school, she worked a few years for Sylvania of Emporium. While working in Emporium, she found her way to and from work daily until buying her own car and being able to offer rides to work to help offset expenses. She was proud to have traveled to Florida, San Diego and Colorado. Mostly she enjoyed taking care of her home and family and the time spent with them.
At Minnie's request there will be no visitation.
A funeral service will be held at 11 a.m. Tuesday, August 13, 2019 at the Caledonia United Methodist Church with Pastor Missy Smith.
Burial will take place next to her husband in the Morningside Cemetery.

Donna,
It was very nice to see you last week, and unfortunately with news of your mother's passing. Our families were very lucky to have our mothers as long as we did, and we will miss them long after. My deepest sympathy to you and your family at the loss of your mother and also recently for the loss of your mother-in-law.
Sincerely,
Kathie Sickeri
