When I read the paper today I was sadden to see that Melissa was gone. I also went to school with her at Monroe and Blackford HS. We always had a great time no matter what we were doing.
I will miss her but cherish the memories.

To Arnold, Patricia, Carole, Barbra and extended family...I was so sorry to learn of Melissa's passing, I went to Monroe and Blackford HS with her and she was always so upbeat, if a bit shy...the world is not as bright without her. Rest with the angels, Melissa~
