I am so sorry to hear of Mrs. Melton's passing. I was one of those 4 year olds she took good care of at the base nursery along with Mrs. Kaylor 41 years ago. I knew them both through Jefferson Methodist as well. She was a precious lady and always was so happy to see me! She will be missed.You are in my thoughts and prayers.

David, so sorry to hear of Ms. Lillian's passing. She was a wonderful Christian woman and was always setting examples for us to follow at Jefferson. Loved singing with her over the years and I know she is with Mr. Clarence now. Will keep you in my prayers.

I'm so sorry to hear of the passing of Mrs. Lillian. She was a "firecracker" of a volunteer here at Wayne Memorial Hospital, and I'm so glad I had to chance to meet her even though it was a short time only. She moved to our emeritus program in 2006. Looking through Mrs. Lillian's file, it's obvious she loved people and loved to serve. She served 3,100 hours at our facility. There's no doubt the hours are high in quantity but quality too. Our prayers are with the entire family.

David, so sorry to hear that Ms. Lillian has passed. I am unable to attend the service since I live in Durham NC, but I do want you to know that you and your daughter are in my thoughts and prayers. Earlene Sutton Beamon and the Betty Sutton family.
