I always enjoyed seeing Melvin at Fulton Hall. He was a kind person, always smiling. Not long ago, I told him he should be back in Fulton and not Devilbiss. He would be happy the Spurs are leading their series. Like me, he enjoyed basketball and sports in general. Melvin will be missed. I wish his friends and family the best.
