Uncle Mel, my godfather and uncle, was a good and caring man who will be deeply missed. I have many found memories of visiting him and Aunt Harriet. I couldn’t wait to sit by the fire or to eat some of his smoked salmon. I am going to miss our Facetime chats, “Hey hunny how are ya?” along with our texts and calls. Hope heaven has prime rib and you remember how to make that special sauce for it. Love and miss you always. Love, Sarah, Tobey and Austin
