Melanie Massera

Dearest Melanie, I tried to telephone you today and the number wasn't in service. Little did I know I could just think of you and know you would be looking over me. You took me under your wing when I was flailing around in Hawaii. Because of your love and influence, I was asked to dance a Tribute to Isadora Duncan. And now, almost 4 decades later, I am again performing a tribute to Isadora. I know this pleases you. You believed in me. Dear, dear Melanie. Rest in peace and in joy. ...

AS THE LIGHT OF YOUR BEING BECAME ONE WITH YOUR SOUL, O WHAT A MAGNIFICENT SIGHT TO BEHOLD! HAPPY AND LAUGHING YOUR SOUL, IS NOW FREE, I UNDERSTAND NOW WHAT IT MEANS TO JUST "BE"AS YOU REACHED FOR THE STARS, ON THE WINDHORSE YOU RODE, I CAUGHT A GLYMPSE OF HEAVEN THATS WHERE YOU WILL BE. I STARTED TO CRY, BUT I KNEW IN MY HEART, YOU TOLD US THIS STORY, IT WAS DRAWN THROUGH YOUR ART. I WILL REMEMBER YOU ALWAYS, ITS SO EASY TO DO, THROUGH THE MEMORIES, ALL THE LAUGHTER, AND BEAUTIFUL HAWAII...

My precious friend, I am an old shell on the beach since the phone call telling me of your passing. I'm so very happy for your peace and joy and at the same time so very
very sad for myself and all those people you were a guardian angel to. I talk to you but must admit that the absence of your
healing voice has left a massive void in my life. I can't wait to share laughter and wonder with you again. You reside in my heart, kiddo, and I thank God for my incredible good fortune when...

Melanie, when I came back you were gone
I send my fond "Aloha 'Oe" though a little late
Until we meet again someday

I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a loved one is never easy. May you find comfort in God's promise that we can see our loved ones again. John 6:40 & 1Thessalonians 4:13

My deepest sympathy for her family. May your pain be less knowing she is near. Talk to her as you know her. Find peace in her memories ...Blessings Janis
