Our family sends our deepest sympathies to all of you. Melanie was one of the great moms in the neighborhood!

I am grateful for having had the opportunity to know Mrs. Nutt over the past several years. She was smart, kind, spunky, and just a joy to be around. (I always enjoyed getting to see her.) Her family is in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Melanie was the perfect combination of warmth and class. Rest in peace.

Melanie brightened every room she entered and every life she touched. I will miss her.
