We were high school pals, played baseball as teens, dedicated Cub fans all these years. Went our separate ways as adults, but spoke on the telephone 3 or 4 times a month. With an occasional visit, we remained very close friends. I will miss our chats, his wisdom, and his great humor so much. He loved Nancy so much. We will miss him dearly.

Mel was a kind and loving soul to Nancy and family. His love of baking, gardening, travel and bowling showed the gentle and humurous side of the man he was. Rest in peace Mel and know you were blessed with love all around you. Love, Renee and Bob Ross
