Uncle Melvin you will be missed so much. You always made Liz and I feel like part of the family, even before I married into this family. You will always be part of our hearts and memories.
We know you are up in heaven finally with your Love Thelma. Give Bessie and Bill hugs for us. Now all of us have many Angels watching over us all.
Love Joey, Sandy & Matt Riddle
