To the Mcqueen and Randolph Families,
I've just heard of Melvin's passing and I'm truly sorry for your lost. In growing up on "the Mile" and going to Stall with him,I can honestly say whenever "Wingbone" was on the set there was never a dull moment. Though we lost contact over the years he is still a "Homey" and news of his passing triggered a sense of lost that I find hard to explain. Nevertheless, it's my sincerest prayer that our Lord Jesus Christ comfort and strengthen each of you now and in days ahead and fill the void you feel with His love.
In His Love,
Clarence "Gus" Jenkins, Jr.

Hello family, I have just recieved the information on Melvin's passing. I indeed am praying much for Aunt Remell and Gail. I too remember when we were kids coming to the family reunion how Melvin would be very quiet and stand off to observe everyone. He never said much and now I am so sad that he is gone. Love much Elleen

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it's the memories of you that are the most precious.

I remember Melvin well from high school. His sister Donna was one of my best friends; so I feel so saddened by this loss. I, however, know that our Father is a healer of broken hearts, so I already KNOW HE will wrap your family in an abundance of love during this time and beyond. Take comfort in His promise. Allow your loving and fun memories of Melvin to fill your hearts. Blessings!
