We were so very sorry to hear the news about Mel, unfortunately it was too late to pay our respects to the family. We will always remember him as a great guy, full of fun and life, & those great lobster fests when the band would play 'footloose'. John remembers him from the Reiger Ink days, always ready to help out even if it meant coming in after hours. You will be sadly missed Mel. Our sincere condolences to you Bobbie and to the family.

Bobbie and Family,

We are so saddened to here the sad news. He fought so hard, a wonderful man, surrounded by so much love and support from you all. I will remember Mel always from many happy times in the Cordwin's sun room, visiting with you all, and of course when we met in Las Vegas. Mel will be with you always in spirit.

Aside from the fellowship in the Lions, we will miss the true meaning of friendship which Mel shared with us. This was always enjoyed, valued and prized.
