To Melody's Family and Friends I wanted to say that it is sad to my heart that this Dear Lady is no longer present in our lives. However, Melody will be etched forever into our hearts. She and I bonded immediately about 11 yrs ago over cats. She and I spent times at HES when she was looking for a companion. I had fallen in love with Azlin, a huge, aged, regal cat that just needed love and a home. Melody fell in love with him as well and we conspired and giggled together to get him to her home, which we did along with another friend of his from HES. We immediately felt we were Sisters, SIS, sister in spirit and laughed as knowing nobody would believe us if we told them we were sisters.
We had lunches together while laughing and sharing and loving and shared our hearts and spirits as Sisters would.
She was strong with the Lord and I know that she was ready when He was ready for her. She helped me with my own stronger Faith in God.
She endured a lot with her health with smiles and faith and grace. Very much I admired her incredible spirit with all that she went through in life.
She is forever etched upon my Spirit, my Heart and my LIfe.
Thank You Melody for being my SIster and my dear friend.
I miss you and will always be reminded of your Grace and Faith.
See you again, this I know when I am called. However it will be a while Dear Friend,
Until then, may you be in full rest and love and peace in God's arms.
