Dear Kathy, Bill, Kristen, Robert, Alison,Jacob, Kurt, Kyla and Wyatt, comforting words fail me at a time like this. I will always remember Melissa and Kristen at church and how I always had to ask, "Ok, which is which." I only wish I had the opportunity to do that again! Melissa will remain in your hearts and thoughts forever; remember all the good times, and they will hopefully help you get through this time of sorrow. Our thoughts and prayers are with you now and every day.
Love, Lesley and Tom DiBello

I only had the pleasure of knowing Mel at work the last few months. My husband is undergoing chemotherapy at MD Anderson and Mel and I bonded. We shared quite a few emails and had quite a few chats. I will treasure those. Mel is the kind of person who you like instantly and feel like you had known forever. I will sincerely miss her. I pray for all her family and friends through this very difficult time. I am blessed to have had the honor to meet this exceptional young woman and call her my friend.

Bill, Kathy, Robert, Kristin, Allison, and Jacob....I am so sorry to hear about the loss of sweet Melissa Ann. I first met your family when she and Kristin weren't even 2 years old. We had so much fun dancing around the house to all types of music. I still have the picture of us all dressed as clowns one Halloween while I was babysitting. Your family has always been very special to me! I know your pain is great but Our God is Greater! Melissa is now singing and dancing in Heaven with a healthy body and spirit. Prayers and love to you all!
