I've known Melinda Williams (when we were in high school). She was active with various events and she and I worked together quite often. She was a friend of my family. I was delighted some thirty years after we graduated from high school that she found me and we picked up where we had left off as friends. To her husband Gary and her sons Jay and Stewart, I am truly sorry for your loss.
