Heaven gained one of the best men I’ve ever known, he was a kind gentle man, you never heard Uncle Melvin raise his voice cause he didn’t have to, everybody respected him. I loved him, he was so good to my grandparents- if they needed or wanted something Uncle Melvin would have for them the next day. Everybody that knew him loved him and will be missed by many, I will never forget you I promise
Ever lasting love your nephew
