Sorry for your loss, our deepest sympathy to all the family.
We are so sorry for your loss. We have fond memories of Mel growing up. Take care.
We were very shocked to hear of Mels accident. We enjoyed his many visits to our place even as late as last year & the visits he made with his son Jace when we were out camping. He had a heart of gold & so easy going. Miss him very much. Not many young fellows like him. Condolences to all the family & will keep all of you in our thoughts & prayers.
Dear Ones of Mel junior's family...our hearts ache for you all as you face this very difficult loss of your dear young Mel. We are glad to think of you leaning on and supporting each other as you go through each day. We will close with the ending Tom's sister, Anne often used when she wrote us..."be good to each other" Much love and caring sympathy, Tom, Monica and family(Moulson)

To my brother, Mel, Val & the family: My family is so sorry for your loss. Mel (Jr) was a good person and had a great and loving soul. He will live in our memories forever. He was also my friend, Don Butler
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I haven't seen Mel in many years, but he holds a very special place in my heart. He was my first love in junior high. That's someone you never forget. He was a great guy. I very sorry to you all.
To all Mels family, we did not know Mel but we know you and are thinking of you at this time. We hope all your good memories of him give you some comfort and peace.
