I had the pleasure of working with Melvin at Lost Creek Country Club. He was the best mechanic and could create anything we needed out of iron and welding it together. He would always make sure that our equipment was ready to go before each season and that our mowers cut perfectly. I'll never forget "Melv" but I know he's in our Father's loving arms. Rest easy friend.
