Melvie was such a sweet, funny, loving man and just happened to be my uncle. I am honored to be able to have him in my life! Always a warm meal waiting for him at the campground! No more camper shopping, Uncle Mel!
Love you forever,
Sandy
Melvin was the best! He was always genuinely interested in what you were doing. He was sweet, friendly and funny. He and Randy played at our wedding which really made it special. I will always remember him and Tillie taking Helen and I swimming on one of their dates. So much fun. We will miss you so much.
Love you forever, Uncle Melvin.
