Hillsboro, OR—Melissa Jubane, a cherished healthcare worker and dedicated community member, has passed away. Known for her compassion as a nurse and her love for plants, Melissa’s death has deeply impacted those around her, including her family and friends.
In a touching tribute, Melissa’s memory will live on through a memorial bench at Amberglen Park in Hillsboro, a place she loved to visit and walk her dog. A fundraiser has been organized by Leanna Flaig, with support from Melissa’s cousin Marie Francisco, to raise $5,700 for the bench. So far, $400 has been donated by five contributors. Any funds raised beyond the goal will go to Melissa’s family.

This is a way for us to keep her memory alive and have a piece of memory live on in this community."
Community members have shared their condolences online. Christan Riddle commented, “I didn’t know her either but I just cannot believe this happened. I am so sad for her and her family.”
The fundraiser will remain open until the goal is met, with any updates regarding the memorial bench shared in the coming months. This thoughtful project reflects the love and respect Melissa’s plant community and her family have for her. Her legacy will be remembered not only through her contributions as a nurse but also through the lives she touched within the community.
