Not sure what to say?

Once again I would like to give my sincere condolences! I was very fortunate to help care for Mr.Melson at VRM! I as all loved to talk and listen to all the history he had about Troy and his life in Troy as well as the love he had for his Family and Troy! I Truly am honored to have been given the chance to help take care of Mr. Melson! I know he would always say to me call me "Bob"! I just really liked to call out his name like Denis the Menace " Oh Mr.Melson"! I too grew u on Stowe Hill in...

To Bob´s Family, I worked with Bob most of my Insurance career at Geer-Stillman, The Lawrence Group and when I worked for The Colonial Agency. I have many fond memories of working with Bob for many years, he was a wonderful Boss. My Sympathies to all his family. RIP Bob

My sympathies to Bob´s family...my husband and I knew Bob and Barbara thru square dancing and spent many delightful times with them...

To the Melsom family, Bob was a wonderful, wonderful man. He worked in the gift shop at Samaritan for years, but 10 of the years that I was there he was my guy he could sell straw hats to Eskimos. Bob will be missed by many he always had a story. He knew everybody.

I will always remember his stories! He had stories about his family, about the history of the Brunswick Church (he was a big part of that history), stories about mutual friends....his memory at 94 was amazing. He was a good friend and I will miss him. My condolences to you and yours, Nancy, Janice and Jack.
