From the first time I met you around Shell Road until the days at Phoebus High School I remember you being this happy go lucky person always smiling.  It's not too many people that have the same positive energy but, you were a define jewel.  I will miss you!!!  Rest in peace Melissa!!

My prayers are with you.  Melissa will be sorely missed.  She was a very special niece to me and a favorite cousin to my girls

It is with sadness that I bid my dear sweet cousin farewell.  I have such fond memories of her and can recall while growing up, I spent many weekends at her house during the Summer  doing the fun things that kids do.  She will remain forever in my heart and be remembered for her affectionate smile, her warmth, and her vivacious personality.    To my family  Melissa's children, mother and siblings  I wish you peace and ask that GOD will comfort you and keep you strong in the days to come.  I love you.Marcia
