Mr. Mellon,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the U.S. Army in Vietnam as a member of the 1st Air Cavalry Division flying "Dust Off" missions. God knows how many men are alive today to see their children and grandchildren because you and your fellow crewmembers were there to get them to quick medical treatment in a timely manner. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Dear Dorothy, Rick, and Family,
Dick was a gentle, loving, and generous man who continuously gave so much to many. We hold precious memories of the lobster bake events at the gray barn in support of the Shriner's Burn Hospital. What great fun for all ... young and old! His robust personality and warm smile will always be remembered. We send our love and prayers to your family.

Dear Dorothy, Rick and Family: Please accept our loving condolences. We have known and loved Richie since childhood and are feeling his loss almost beyond words. He could never say 'no' to a friend, new or old, and personified the ideals of Freemasonry. Throughout this last, long ordeal, he remained upbeat and on the alert for ways to care for others. Richie will always have a special place in our hearts, and will serve as a model of how to truly obey the Golden Rule. With love and...
