Melissa will always hold a special place in my heart. We had some fun times and lots of laughs together. She was the bundle of awesomeness that played matchmaker for me and my (now) husband, and for that, I will be forever grateful to her. My prayers are with all of her family and friends that the peace of God will comfort you all.. Matthew 5;4 Blessed are those who mourn,for they will be comforted

Melissa will always have a special place in my heart. She never changed in her sweet caring ways the whole 24 years we were friends. And every time we got back together it was like not a day had passed that we hadnt talked. My thoughts and prayers are with the family and all her other friends during this hard time. RIP Melissa. You will NEVER be forgotten. Anne Masters
