I was in Wishes N Dreams the other day & asked how Melba was....didn't know she had gone to be with the Lord ~ She was always delightful to talk to. I lost my Momma in 2009 & Melba treated me with such love as a customer. My prayers is for her family to be blessed with God's peace. I know your hearts are broken into, but you will see this wonderful woman again ~ She is but a breath away ~
Respectfully,

I never knew my own grandmothers, but my husband's grandmother, Melba, was a wonderful surrogate. I'll miss her presence, her talent for making things beautiful, and the quiet guidance she provided everyone in the family. Rest in peace, grandma.

We are so sorry to learn of Melba's passing. She was our favorite friend at Wishes & Dreams.She was always sweet, friendly and helpful.
Sincerely, Rosemary and Lou DuBois.

Grandma was such a sweet woman and always, always had a smile on her face :) I will always remember her sitting in her recliner watching Days of Our Lives and joking around giving Brian a hard time about something or other. She was one of my favorites and will be sorely missed.
