It was always a sunny day when Jim was around no matter the weather. He had a wonderful smile and a generous heart. I was so glad to be a distant relative. Blessings to Todd and Sue and Cameron and Randy and his family.

It was an honor to have met such a fine gentleman.

Jim and his lovely wife were wonderful neighbors to us when we were just newly married and had three young kids on Manor Street. We remember them fondly every year when we hang a cross stitched Christmas tree ornament made and given to us by Dorothy. Our deepest sympathies to the Melliger family.

Randy & Caprice,
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you upon the passing of your Dad.

Whenever you asked my father
-in-law if he needed anything he always said, "just a few kind words." Pops will always be loved and remembered for his unwavering kindness, his generous spirit and wonderful smile, and his unending ability to comfort and keep you in his heart and mind.
