I met Melissa last year and fell in love with her immediately. She was so funny and always made me laugh. She was very caring and giving. If you needed something and she had it, she'd give it right to you. I will always remember the sound of her laugh. You will always be close to me heart Melissa. We have the same tattoo under our eye and I will think about you every time I look in the mirror and see my own tattoo. I love you Melissa!
