Dear Mrs. Melinson, Gregg, Megan and Family: We are very sorry to hear of Judge Melinson's passing. He was truly a great judge and even greater human being. You are in our thoughts and prayers. Owen and Kimberly Kelly and Family

Judge Melinson was a great judge and person. He was my high school vice principal at Olney. He became a lawyer and so did I. We always crossed paths through out our careers. I was so proud when he became a Federal Judge. I would always see him at the Bench Bar conferences. We would always reminisce about the great times. He was a real role model. So sorry for his passing. He left a beautiful legacy.Rest in peace. Michael D Rubin,Esquire

I loved Judge Melinson as my teacher at Olney High. I was his monitor when he was the Disciplinarian. He was a great teacher . I contacted him when he became a judge. We had a good conversation. RIP

A wise, patient and respected Judge and friend.
