To the Family and Loved Ones,

It has deeply saddened me to read about the passing of Mr. Mealy. As far back as I can remember, some 40 years plus, Mr. Mealy has always been an excellent neighbor to the Goodwin family. His demeanor has always been very kind, having something joyous and humorous to share on every occasion. No matter how he felt, he still was very compassionate about the well being of others. I will truly miss him.
