Rina Len Richter, beloved wife and mother, passed away May 10th at Orange Regional Medical Center from complications of Covid-19. She was born in Harrison, PA to Charles Bonora and Antionette (Zanoni) Bonora. Rina married Bruno Richter and happily settled in North Babylon, Long Island, where they raised their son Wayne.

In later years Rina and Bruno moved to Orange County, building a lovely home in Monroe.
Rina was a devout Catholic and a longtime parishioner of Sacred Heart Church of Monroe. She had been a caregiver and loved any time spent with children. Rina especially enjoyed hosting celebrations in her home, always happy to cook for family and friends.
Rina was predeceased by her husband Bruno, son Wayne and siblings Leo Bonora, Mary Bonora, Lee Bonora, Rudy Bonora, Clara Freeman and Aldo Bonora. She is survived by her grandson Adam Richter, wife Stephanie and great grandchildren Brantley and Mia of Roebuck, SC.
