Obituary

Pat V. Melaragno, age 95, passed away on Wednesday January 13, 2016. He was born on April 1, 1920 in Pagliaroni, Italy. He was on the State golf championship team from Central High School in 1937 and then went on to serve in World War II (from 1941-1945) in the U.S. Army obtaining the rank of Tech Sgt., having been awarded the Purple Heart, the EAME Ribbon and the Oak Leaf Cluster. After retiring from the federal government, he served as Office Manager at the Riviera Country Club. An avid golfer, he achieved seven holes-in-one, loved to fish and supported OSU football; but most of all, his family was his number one priority.

He is preceded in death by parents, Salvatore and Bambina (Iannicito) Melaragno; in-laws, Nicola and Josephine Lombardi; brother and sister-in-law, John and Nedda Melaragno; brother-in-law, Dominick Lombardi; and sister-in-law, Lucille Lukens. He is survived by loving family: his wife of 70 years, Mary (Lombardi) Melaragno; children, Olin (Barb) Melaragno, Robert (Marcella) Melaragno, Patty (Mark) Boll, Lori (Jim) Kane and Jane (Carl) Bucher; 16 grandchildren; and 10 great-grandchildren; brothers, George (Esther), Dr. Henry (Dorothy) and Dr. Ernest (Rita) Melaragno; sisters-in-law, Angie Melaragno and Laura Lombardi; and brother-in-law, Robert (Janette) Lombardi; and many nieces and nephews. His family will receive friends on Sunday, January 17, 2016, from 2-6 p.m., at the JOHN QUINT TREBONI FUNERAL HOME, 1177 W. 5th Avenue, Columbus.
