Dear Dingles, One and All:
I was so saddened to hear of Mel’s death and I know it is a hard time indeed for you all.
Such a huge loss and such a special lady.
There aren’t really sufficient words but you know I’m sending the warmest, squeeziest hugs your way.
Melanie was a good friend to my mom and one of my fondest recent memories is a visit between the two. Mom couldn’t hear and Mel couldn’t see but they made it work. I hope they have lots more laughter wherever they are now.
Much love,
Kate
