Mel and the entire Schell family has always been my extended family, I grew up with Harm, drove her home from high school and would normally stay the rest of the evening just hanging out with Mel and Sam. They would always take me in and feed me and love me with out any question. When I got married the Family flew down to Florida and Sam was a groomsman in my wedding party and of course Mel was there to, to help celebrate that amazing day. Melody was and forever will be a motherly person I was blessed to have in my life. I love you Mel and I will never ever forget everything you did for me and you will greatly missed by everyone.
