It breaks our hearts to lose you
But you did not go alone
For a part of us went with you
The day that God called you home
Though your smile is gone forever
And your hand we cannot touch
We will always have the memories
Of the one we loved so much
We love you!

Please accept our deepest sympathy. Our thoughts, prayers and love are with you during this sad time. Mel & Lynn had a very special place in our hearts. The best neighbours you could ask for, they always made us feel welcomed and Included us in many family gatherings. We had the privilege of sharing a fence for 17 years and spent many evenings barbecuing and enjoying great conversations. Many of those about his family, reminiscing about his boys when they were young. All our love, Dean, Christina; Cali , Zenon & Keenan Toporoski - Posted by: Toporoski Family (Neighbor & Friend) on: Oct 25, 2019

We will always remember Mel as our son-in-law's dad and we shared two beautiful grandchildren. Mel was a people person. I will remember most about how he was so happy to find enjoyment at the Duck where he had a trailer. Was his favourite place. RIP Mel. You sure fought the good fight and have earned your wings. - Posted by: Tom and Edith Parent (Mel was our daughters father in law ) on: Oct 23, 2019
