Mel on the YMCA Camp Orkila stage, 2006

While I only know Mel through 2006 photos of him singing on the YMCA Camp Orkila stage for Camp's 100th anniversary, it is clear he had a big spirit and was well loved by many. Memorial gifts have been arriving to the YMCA Camping Services office to help send young campers to Mel's camp. Thank you all for your generosity.

We were sorry to hear about Mel. He was an inspiration to us in business and life itself. We know his strong faith is a comfort to us all.

I first met Mel when I joined Sylvania in Seattle in 1958. Our careers led us from sales to sales management. In 1970, I left Sylvania to return to San Diego, but Mel kept in touch. I'll miss hearing from Mel but will remember him as one of the really nice guys.

Life is forever changed. Please know that the entire Moehring family is in my thoughts and prayers. He will be missed.

Mr. Moehring (I just can't think of him as "Mel" since I met him when I was 10!) was always generous, loving and had a great laugh. I plan to eat a big steak dinner at Smith & Wollensky in his honor!

I am thinking of you and send my love and prayers.

He will be missed. I will plant some tomatoes this year in his honor. Becky - I hope you are available for weeding. We are thinking of you all at this time.
Love,
Lesley (Weeks), Victor & Ava Ochoa
