Not sure what to say?

Mel was my neighbor in the Beverly Glen Canyon and was always a pleasure to see. He and Peter were good neighbors.

Mel was a wonderful, caring person. He gave us flower children, of the late 60's, great memories. Days of playing frisbie in the park and making daisy bands for the little ones. We will miss your loving and happy smile Mel.

In rememberance of a sweet and dear man who was like a father to me for 26 years. I will always remember him, and try to be more like him for the rest of my time on this earth. He will be missed greatly, but will remain forever with me in my thoughts, and in memory. Peace be with you sweetheart.

Mel..Thank you for your friendship thru all the challenges and successes in my life you were a great friend and a large part of my life.... some of my fondest memories are of the time that I spent at the Beverly Glenn Manor... I well miss you and your laugh...Doug Kelly (Dusty Adams)

Rest In Peace you beautiful, kind man... I am so glad I had the opportunity to get to know you, as you have been such an inspiration to me. Enjoy your angel flight, Mel - but know I'll be missing you! All my love. Vx
