To the entire Augillard Family:
"Melo" was someone that stood out in the community as a quiet pillar of strength and conviction. He caused a lot of men to stop and look at how they conducted their own lives. Ultimately, that is truly a measure of the effectiveness of a real man, both now and forever. You were all very blessed, God will join you with him again one day.

Melo was one of my favorite mployees when I worked at Freeport's Uncle Sam Plant. He was a kind hearted soul who rarely complained and conducted himself in an exemplary fashion. I am sorry I am out of town and will not be able too attend his services. My deepest condolences to the entire family.
