My sincere and heartfelt condolences to the entire family. Loss is never easy. Melody was a fun lady with a big smile, a lot of energy and a hearty laugh. Years ago we used to have Christmas dinner at their house and Dave used to play the accordion with Ebony by his side. Those were the good old days. Courtney, Paget, Cory, Dave and Laura, we are here mourning for and with you during this sad time. Reach out to us anytime Love Auntie M and Nathan xoxo.

Although I didn’t know your Mom very well, we lived in the same building and we would chat as I walked past the last three years. This spring when she complained of a sore back, I walked Toby a few times for her. I’m so sorry that I didn’t get to know her better as she was such a lovely person. My condolences to you all and know I have had you in my prayers these last few weeks.

David,Cory,Byron, Leslie. Margie and your families I send condolences. Melody's birth mother Margaret and my mother Irene were sisters and so we spend alot of time together as children until my family moved from the Pass. We still would visit and my fondest memories of Margaret were me trying to teach her to whistle by sticking our fingers in our mouths - she just didnt get it but we sure laughed then Melody got me back by taking me to swin in the rock slide where she insisted there were people living under the water. Then Melody graduated and came to live with us where I introduced her to the love of her life - Dave - and their love bloomed. Melody I hope you Rest in Peace and know you are forever in my heart and mind - rest well cuz!!!

Dave, to you and your family, please accept my deepest condolences. May all your memories of your Mother bring peace and smiles. Sincerely, Ingrid Holst Moynihan
