A Tribute to Melvin's Life

Melvin Ray Marquez, passed on June 1st surrounded by his children and grandchildren. Melvin was born on July 18 1954 in Belen New Mexico. Melvin met the love of his life, Connie, in 1973 and shared a kiss (a chocolate kiss and a real kiss). Melvin continued to live a blessed life full of memories of hunting, fishing, laughing, and living life to the fullest. Everyone that met Melvin was instantly his partner in crime. His personality charmed everyone. Melvin has created a beautiful family of 6 children, 19 grandchildren, and 6 great-grandchildren.

We are currently coordinating the details of the funeral and burial services for Melvin. Several friends and family have asked how they can contribute to the funeral expenses. Thank you for being so supportive during this time.
