Veta Nell Bono Middleton, 90, of Houston, passed away on Friday, October 25, 2019. Veta was preceded in death by her husband, Rob, and her four siblings. She is survived by her children, John Rob, Cindy, Mary Esther, and Kathy; seven grandchildren; and twelve nieces and nephews.
Veta was born on September 10, 1929 in Houston, Texas to John and Mary Bono. She married her beloved husband, Rob, in 1955, and their 54 magical years of marriage were an inspiration to many. The first in her family to attend college, Veta worked as a P.E. teacher before fulfilling her life’s goal of becoming a mother and building a strong and loving family. Throughout her long life as a mother, grandmother, aunt, neighbor, and friend, Veta’s kitchen brimmed with nourishing meals, coveted treats, family traditions, and laughter. Her Catholic faith, Sicilian heritage, and deep love for family and friends brought immeasurable comfort and countless Sunday spaghetti suppers to her family and community in Houston.
The family will be hosting a reception at 3:30 PM in the "Family Life Center" at St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church 8200 Roos Road Houston, Texas 77036.
The family request, that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to St. Francis de Sales Catholic Church or Mended Hearts Chapter 362 Southeast Texas, Att: James King 3303 Point Clear Dr. Missouri City, TX 77459-3621.
