Karen and Andrea,
I am so sorry to hear of your mom's passing. For the short time that I knew Mel, she was always a joy to be around.
We had plenty of good laughs together!
Her wholesome spirit, her love of nature, her sense of humor, and her kindness, will always be remembered by all of the lives she has touched. Love you, Mel!
