Ken and I are deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Dr. Melvin, a man who certainly lived a life worth living. Ken knew Jerry through Rotary while I taught under his leadership in the NSCSD.

Both Liverpool and North Syracuse school districts prospered under his compassionate and thoughtful leadership. Our world has lost a man of principle and...

Jerry Melvin should be remembered as a Superintendent who worked with parent communicators from each school in Liverpool. It was educational and a pleasure to meet with him as he endeavored to have the school be the best it could be for our children..

Time to come home dear brother Your tour of duty through You've given as much as anyone Could be expected to do Just a few steps further The smoke will start to clear Others here will guide you You have no need of fear You have not failed your brothers You clearly gave it all And through your selfless actions Others will hear the call So take your place of honor Among those who have gone before And know you will be remembered For now and evermore

We can say that we have been a long time friend of Jerry's, and will miss him as many others will also. Our sympathy and love go to Barbara, and his family. We recall good times at Optimist meetings, and events. He certainly led a full and wonderful life and accomplished so much in the community. We will always remember his kind words.

Dear Buster, Mary Kay, and Cindi. Chris told me of the loss of your dad. He had quite a long history of all that he accomplished. I think his greatest accomplishments though would be you three. You also have much to be proud of, a true tribute to your mom and dad. I have very fond memories of the Seiter Hill Road crew and your family is a major part of that. God bless you, keep you safe, and please accept my condolences on your loss. Dot Sharillo (koziel).

Dr. Melvin was my superintendent at Liverpool High School, a colleague , and a wonderful friend, as well. He was supportive and respectful of those he supervised, and he knew each of us personally. We were extremely fortunate to call him a mentor. He was missed when he left the district, and he will be remembered as a charismatic and caring individual. He deserves the highest honors. Condolences to his family and lived ones.
