I LOVE AND MISS YOU GRANDPA.

May 15, 2011

Melvin was the kindest, most caring and loving uncle anyone could ever have. He was so devoted to caring for his whole family, no matter what, and that carried over to his extended family as well. He worked very hard his whole life and put his heart into everything he did to do it well and he never once thought of himself first. We will miss him sooooo much but I know my Granny and Mother will be so glad to welcome him and hold him in their arms in heaven and he will rest in peace. May God bless and keep HIS loving arms surrounding his family each and every day. All My Love, Dot Brown
