To the Meloni family and all who loved you. Thank you for our phone conversations and sharing all those wonderful stories, especially about your mother. I am a better person for having known you, brief as it was.
Your gentle, graciousness will never be forgotten. You never felt like a stranger, right from the start. Thank you, Mr. Meloni, Bill, as you always affirmed.
Rest in Peace.
Until we meet again, I remain, most affectionately,
Susie

I just found out that you passed away. My prayers and thoughts go out to your family. I met Bill while working at the IRS. He was a loving carrying man. Rip my friend.

Bill was always so nice to me and seemed happy whenever I called. He so enjoyed the wild turkeys in Easton. You will be missed, my friend.
