Melanie,
Depart, O Christian soul, out of this world;
In the Name of God the Father who created you;
In the Name of Jesus Christ who redeemed you;
In the Name of the Holy Spirit who sanctifies you.
May your rest this day be in peace,
and your dwelling place be in the Paradise of our God.

I did not know Melanie personally, I have been attending New life for less than a year, but I do understand the pain, grief and memories of a husband losing his wife, and of the same emotions felt by the children and parents.
I lost my wife a little over a year ago, and would just like the family to believe and trust that the Lord will see you through the very hard days ahead. Jesus is faithful and will never leave you or forsake you.
My heartfelt prayers for you all, God bless you and your family.

Praying for the entire family during this time, and I pray that as the days go by, you will find and embrace healing. Mel was such a good friend, I was always excited and happy when I found out we were working together! She was an exceptional tech, and very hard working. I know she loved her family so much, because she always talked about them. We will never forget her and she will always have a special place in our hearts
