Just hearing about Melvin's passing as I am going through pictures of my visits with colleagues and then family to meet Secretariat and then my return to honor Secretariat. Melvin was a great man and very capable horseman. I remember him fondly and think of him often as I pass by the picture of us with Secretariat that I have hanging in my home. My sincere condolences to his family and I take comfort in knowing he is at peace, possibly enjoying continued care with exemplary thoroughbreds!
