Nancy McDermeit (Devine)

Melissa was amazingly smart and funny and musically talented. She was zany and crazy and loved to have fun. She was the best of friends and so very inspiring. Reading her obituary it was wonderful to see how she carried these virtues throughout her life and beyond. She was the embodiment of a life well lived in her own terms. She made life at North so much fun. Thank you Melissa. Thank you for being your own wonderful self. I wish your family the best, for they will miss you and remember you with smiles.  Nancy McDermeit Devine

Nancy, many thanks for sharing your sweet and caring memories of Melissa with me.  I did not know her, but after reading your tribute and her obituary, wish so very much that I had.  You are right, I missed out on knowing this zany, fun, talented and lovely soul.
