Melissa, I was just reaching out to you to get my neck worked on. You had always done well to 'fix' me and your many clients. I see now that you have left us and I will miss your kindness and your brilliant hands of healing. I know you will get this message as I think it. I am sad that you are not here to visit. Love you kiddo.

Melissa, you was always right there at Nowhere Tavern when Busted Remedy and myself would play, and you and would share love for the music every now and then you would send a message to me about a tune and ask what I think or I would send you one!! I sure will miss these moments but thank you for your friendship

You were such an amazing stepdaughter. I didn´t give you the gift of life, life gave me the gift of you. And I am so very grateful I was able to spend 40 years with you, making memories and sharing our life´s journey. Your sweet spirit will live on in my heart as well as the hearts of those who loved you. I´m looking forward to the day that I get to see you again, to laugh with you, and exchange a precious hug with you like we always did. Rest In Peace. I will never forget you. You touched my life in such a beautiful way. You were a ray of sunshine. I miss you so much already.
