I just read of Melanie’s passing. We grew up together in Grants Pass. Our families spent much time together. When my siblings went off to school I cried to be left alone, my Mom, said today is Relief Society and Melanie will be with you in the nursery. That made my day. We grew up in separate wards and after graduation I left Grants Pass and lost contact with her. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. The knowledge we have that Families will be forever’ gives me comfort. I live in Logan, Utah now and I regret I missed showing my love and respect. Much love, Barb Armstrong Hammond

Melanie was so loving, kind, compassionate, and so many wonderful things. She was incredibly courageous as she battled an aweful disease. She fought hard to stay for all that she loved. I admired her because she never gave up. With her wonderful, loving soulmate at her side, doing everything he could to make her laugh and remember. He was tireless and brave as they battled it together. My Brother Howdy never gave up as he catered to her every need. What a wonderful example the two of them were for a beautiful, 23 year marriage. I am so proud of both of them. She was a Woman of Faith and helped so many people. It was my honor and privilege to be able to support them and to have known her. I called her our "Sweet Melanie". I shall miss her all the remaining days of my life and beyond.. Indeed she was an Angel already, helping and loving so many. And as she waits in the beautiful Temple to meet Howdy again, I can see her looking like the Angel she was on earth. She waits with Jesus Christ, God and others for when it's time for her loving Husband to join her. She will never be forgotten, ever. I shall miss and love her all the days of my life and beyond..a Sister on Earth and a Sister in the Heavens. My heart is heavy that she is gone. I didn't get enough time with her, time just moves along. She meant the world to me and so many others. She will always be remembered by those who loved her. So I won't say "Goodbye", I will say "See you later Sweet Melanie", I know we will meet again in Eternity. I loved you then, I love you now, you rest awhile while your gone. To my Brother Howdy, her children, and friends, my deepest sympathies for her passing. Lean on your Faith, lean on each other and know we all love her. I hope you find comfort with your Faith in knowing she's free of pain. May you be covered in love on this very hard day and the days which will come. My heart is there with you all. I am here for all of you, whenever you need me. Take good care "Sweet Melanie" and I know I will see you again. My Sister, and my dear friend. Your loving Sister Jill. 💜🌹🙏

Melanie had the kindest heart and the best sense of humor. She was grounded in incredible faith - the faith that led her to the love of her life, her wonderful husband who took meticulous care of her under very trying circumstances. Her deepest desire was to be sealed to her husband and I will never forget the beautiful sacred day that we gathered in the Portland, OR temple for that purpose. She was the smartest person I ever knew - open to ideas and people. Her Relief Society lessons were brave and interesting and insightful - changing the lives of the women she taught. She was a doer of the word - a person who made things happen for herself and others. She was incredibly funny and incredibly fun - my partner in crime at girl's camp with the most delicious laugh. She took care of me when I was sad and forgave me when I made mistakes. Someday, I hope to see her in heaven where I know she is safely now with her most beloved Heavenly Father. Melanie deserves every good thing and I trust that Heavenly Father is as excited to see her as she is to see Him.

Melanie was so much fun! She had the greatest laugh and was quick to find humor in things. She loved to take long drives and have great parties. As she moved through life, she always made and collected new friends, whom she cherished, along the way. She was a talented seamstress and loved to cook. Nothing made her happier than to help someone who needed assistance or encouragement. But she was happiest in her life when she met Howdy Hunt, and they were married. She loved being his wife, becoming a step mom, and sharing time together. I'm thankful she got to experience that kind of love. She deserved every good thing in life. Heaven has gained an tremendous angel. Until we meet again...
