I was deeply saddened to learn of Mel's passing. We became fast friends at UNC in 1990, and she brought lots of laughter and light to my life--then and through the years every time I thought of her.

Two months have passed and I am still reeling from the fact that Melissa is gone. She was more than just a sweet girl: she was a saint. I will forever miss her kind smile, gentle spirit, and loving ways.
