Dear Cathy,

Dick and I send our sincere condolences
to you and the family for your loss. I remember you and Mel dancing together so beautifully on the dance floor. I have memories, too, of how much he seemed to love his family and enjoy his home. He is surely resting in peace in the light of the Holy Spirit.

My deepest sympathies to Katie, Anna, Mel Jr, Crystal, Jessie, Rosie and Pat. I will miss him dearly. He was my cousin, my brother and my hero. As a child, I always looked to him for comfort and he never failed me. I look forward to the day that God lets us be together again. God Bless you Mel.

We will miss seeing Mel working in his yard and walking around the neighborhood. A fine man that was a pleasure to speak with. Mel had a great sense of humor. God Bless Mel.
