Roberta and Family,  I just heard of the passing of Melvin.  Y’all are in my thoughts and prayers.

We all talk about how my Uncle Melvin was the sweetest man alive. When u were around Uncle Melvin you knew you were loved. He had a special love for his sisters. My Mom Barbara and he were very close and they would have done anything for each other when they were able. I guess that carried over to me, his niece and my daughter.  He just really loved being with us and we loved when he was with us. He even took me hunting once when i was real little and had no idea what i was doing but it didn't matter because I was with My Uncle Melvin and just being with him was fun and such a blessing. We sat on a rock overlooking the beautiful meadow view never seeing any deer(which I was secretly glad of) and he sliced up some radishes out of his pocket as we just sat and talked!! That is One of my favorite memories! He was always yhere looking out for me on my horse and later in our lives loved showing my daughter the farm the same way he did for me and showed her his cows and baby calves and differnt things about the farm...letting us help feed the cows too. We always knew he was there looking out for us whenever we were visiting and we loved being with him driving in his truck on the farm. We had Thanksgivimg every year together because it just wasn't Thanksgiving if Uncle Melvin wasn't there. This year won't be the same...all of our hearts are very broken and he will be so missed. I will miss everything about him and when we are visiting at the farm again soon our hearts will be warmed with all our memories seeing him everywhere on the farm. I loved my Uncle Melvin so! We all did! My Mom is going to miss one of her favorite people in the world, I know, and he will always be in her and all of our hearts forever and ever. We Love u so much Uncle Melvin!

To the family, We all know Melvin is in the arms of Jesus. My sweet Brother will be missed but we will see him again.

Dwayne (Tree) and Tim (Twig), we are sorry for the lost of your Dad. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.  Tears will be shed, but that's OK, because , " Jesus wept".

We loved to know kind, fun Melvin.
He always enjoyed talking to you about
Living in the country, church, family, singing,  and encouragement to all.

He and Connie were painting at
Mom's, I would play piano, all singing the  old gospel songs. He came to
Mt. Horeb homecoming services.
Good times and forever friends.

We send our love and prayers.

Martha Bryant and Esther Stinnett

Dear Roberta, Tim, and Dwayne,
     Sad to learn of Melvin’s passing   Have a lot of fond memories of you all from the years I knew you while working at Amherst Jr High.  Just that name for the school reminds us how long ago that was, doesn't it?   I hope the support of your friends and your faith will give you peace during this time. 

My condolences to Roberta and family in their bereavement.

 I will never forget the visit from my uncle Melvin and my cousin Dwayne right before my 7 1/2 year prison journey. It was the sweetest visit, I felt so much love from them both and I embraced  that visit throughout my whole journey I remember the prayer so genuine and sweet. I love my uncle Melvin so much and it’s comforting to know just how much he loved the Lord Jesus. My heart breaks that I did not get to visit with him before he went home to Jesus but I will see him again someday 
I love you uncle Melvin see you on the other side💙
