Not sure what to say?

Dear Meltebeke family,
I always felt very blessed to have shared some very happy times with Billy and Squidge. Billy had told me when Squidge passed away, and I always wondered how he was doing. I could not and cannot imagine them not together, but then, now they are together again. God bless Billy and Squidge. Thanks for the memories! Krissy

Dear Meltebeke Family.....do I remember "Willie" & Squidge? You bet I do! Some of my best times have been with them; they were members of Los Coyotes CC and my best memories are of the wonderful times together -golfing, laughing, partying. Have spent many great times at their desert house at The Springs. I am ever so grateful that I had the pleasure of knowing them and for them giving me such wonderful memories. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I remember Bill and Squidge when they lived in Hillsboro. I even got to baby sit the kids. When Harlan went on his sabbatical, Bill arranged for us to pick up our VW Dasher in Germany which we had shipped back when we left. I believe the last time I saw Bill was when we went down to the desert to sell my Mother's place. I certainly have good memories of both Bill and Squidge. My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Dear Meltebeke Family,
Didn't know your dad well but always enjoyed when he stopped in. I worked at the dealership with Don McQuines. My thoughts are with you in your grief.
