Family and Friends of Richard Melita: A truly intelligent and thoughtful gentleman. Most sad to learn of his passing. We worked at the NYS-DoT for many years, beginning in 1988 in the Computer Services Bureau. Dick was a most enlightened and humane manager. Wonderful for and with whom to work. Your feelings of bereavement and grief must be overwhelming. May your period of bereavement and grief be, mercifully, short. God bless you all!

I was hired by Dick when he worked for DOT. He was a very nice person and I was grateful to him for bringing me into the agency. My deepest sympathies to his family and those who knew him more than I.
