Fortunately I had the pleasure of working with Mel and Johanne on their race team, They were more than an employer they always treated me like family. Mel had a great passion for drag racing and had great stories from the old days all the way through the mid 2000's until he retired. Mel's already missed. Johanne your in our thoughts and prayers . Love Kevin and Phillip

Sorry to hear of Mel´s passing. Just talked to him at my sister´s funeral 3 months ago. We had a nice talk since I haven´t seen him in over 50 years. I remember my mother talking of how he would tease her often. He and my sister were good friends from school. Rest in peace Mel.
