Melvin Keith Pendleton

Dear Ida, It was nice talking to you this morning and sad but beautiful hearing you tell me about your dad.
I can tell you really had a great relationship with him and that you loved him very much. I am now searching to read the obit. Love Judy

Ellie and Family,
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. What a wonderful and inspiring man he was. A wonderful smile and always so loving to us. We'll miss you, Keith. Love, Merry and Siddhartha

Clay, I did not know your father but heard you talk about him many times. In looking at his obit I can see that he was a very interesting and talented person who led a full life. He passed on many of his good qualities to you. I'm sorry for your loss. Let me know if I can do anything. Your friend Marc

Dear Ellie, Ida & Clay,

Here's a hug for each of you. I'm sorry to hear of Keith's passing and, along with so many, will miss him. He always had insightful comments in Sunday School. Ellie, I put tremendous value in our special friendship and look forward to seeing you soon. Keith's obituary is one in a million, the best. My thoughts are with you. Love Jim

Keith, Sunday School will never be the same without you on the front row full of insight and doctrine. I will miss you. I am so very glad to have known you and been your neighbor. Love to you Ellie, Ida and Clay, our hearts are with you.

I hope not to intrude, but I had to comment on this apparently wonderful couple. I collect self-written obituaries, and have never seen one as beautiful as this. I think everyone should consider doing the same.
It is obvious these two individuals lived valuable, loving lives.
What a great example for us all, Craig

Keith and Ellie,

We love you. Thank you for being my local grandparents and teachers. Big hug.

Elle and Ida
I haven't seen you for while but you have always been in my memory and have always been special to me. I am sorry to hear about your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I love and miss you. Heather Rodenbough (Shopko Pharmacy )

My heart hurts to know that Ellie is without Keith now here on earth but, my heart is full in knowing that he'll be waiting for her patiently with open arms in the future. I have always felt thankful that I knew Keith for the time that I did. During the time I was married to Ellie's nephew Barr (Warren), I absolutely LOVED coming to visit Keith and Ellie and 'Fine Grandma' at their home! I never wanted to leave because it was so comfortable there. Keith was a genuine, warm and loving...
