Ines M. Palombo (nee Melchionni) age 89 years of Cherry Hill, passed away peacefully on January 24, 2019.  Beloved wife of the late Remo.  Devoted mother of Patricia Blake (John), Lori Kenney (Joe), Nancy Ehle (Bob) and Maria Murphy (Drew).  Loving Grammy of Lauren Blake Cobb (Brady), Eric Blake, Alexandra Kenney Reiss (Paul), Meghan Kenney McNamara (Danny), Daniel Ehle, Allyson Ehle, Emily Murphy and Ethan Murphy and GiGi of Carter & Campbell Cobb, Shea McNamara and Caroline Reiss.  Dear sister of Lilla DiStanislao and the late William and Bruno Melchionni.  Also survived by caretaker, Stephanie Wilkins and many loving nieces, nephews and friends.

Ines and her late husband Remo enjoyed traveling throughout the world, especially to her family’s native country of Italy.  They loved to dance and spent many weekends “jitterbugging” the nights away.  But most of all, Ines was an amazing cook who loved hosting her family and friends for elaborate Italian dinners.  She was the matriarch of her family and will be sorely missed by all.
