I’m so sorry to hear about your Uncle Mel passing away. I lost my own aunt last week, so I can imagine what you must be going through. Thank you for sharing a bit of him with us. If you need anything, don’t hesitate to e-mail me. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
One more thing i have to throw out there…this has been eating at me, and I didn’t realize it til I was talking to some friends…
I was waiting til Thanksgiving to tell Mel about a bunch of stuff - ask questions and tell him about things I’ve read and seen - I have a stack of forwarded computer stuff for him I was going to bring along to Nancy’s. Too late. And this is really kicking me in the ass.
Is why I’m asking you to please call those you care for now.

You and your family will be in my thoughts.

Oh hon, I’m sorry I was away when you needed a shoulder.
It’s always difficult to know what to say at times like this: words seem so inadequate. But what I know is that the memories he’s given you are priceless - hold onto them and recall him fondly. I bet he would’ve wanted you to celbrate his life rather than mourn his death.
Remember his kindness and try to keep part of him alive.
And remember I’m here if you want to talk.
Oh, I am so sad about this. {{{{{sandyr}}}}}
You know, your description of Mel was so vivid, he lives in us a little bit now. Memories are what keep people alive for a long time. I can tell Mel was a neato guy, and a sweet guy. Bless his heart.
My prayers go to all of you, and especially Mel’s wife. This is SO sad.

Wow, that is really rough. I hope it helps to know that I’m sure he knew how much you cared for him, especially since his own kids were kind of out of the picture. I’ll bet he felt like you were one of his own.
Give your aunt a hug for us!
I am one of those people.
Learned that lesson the hard way, too.
Never again.
Hang in there, sandyr. You’re in my thoughts.
It’s hard to hear when things go like that.
One of things my grandmother has always told me is: “Be thankful - and always say your goodbyes to your friends and family, you never know if it’s going to be the last time.”
Hope you can take it easy the next few days sandy,

My deepest sympathies to you and your family.

Dear Sandy-
I am so, so sorry you had to lose this man who you loved so much-and that you had to lose him much too soon. You are in my heart and my prayers. You have my email address, please don’t hesitate for one second to let me know if you need to talk.
You are not alone, please try to remember that.
Cheri
I am truly sorry for your loss
