Laying my sister Melinda To rest
Donation protected
Hey all. I’m here to ask for help!
Some of you may know her and some of you may not. My sister Melinda took her last breath on Sunday. I got the call here in the mainland at 11am & nothing and I mean nothing prepares you for that kind of news. Melinda was the 4th youngest of 9.
She has her children Michael, Antonio, Bernard jr, Joann, Micahlyn, jerlyn, Angel and Aaron who are now mourning the loss of their mom. Those who know Melinda know she was crazy and loud. Crazy in a funny goofy way.
For those of you who don’t know her, let me tell you about her. Melinda was loud. She was always smiling, she never took anything serious let alone life and just made a laughing matter out of every and anything. She knew how to make a whole room laugh and I really mean that! Her laugh was loud and obnoxious but it was also contagious and hysterical if that makes any sense. I can literally picture her now and hear her laugh as she throws her head back, eyes so squinty and laughing her some what hyena sounding laugh. Melinda truly did have a good heart. She did as much as she could for others and she did it without expecting a thing in return. Yes, she wasn’t perfect …..let’s be real, who is? But she really did have a genuine heart, she did always want to make people laugh and she managed to make them laugh. She would make someone who felt uncomfortable feel at home pre just let them loosen up. She knew how to liven things up! She’d dance stupid dances, but she also knew how to actually dance. She’d make the dumbest faces, but she also did smile a real smile. Melinda was the loudest, Melinda had the biggest smile, Melinda was someone you knew when EXACTLY they showed up to an event or entered a room. Like I said, she had her flaws, but we all do, but ultimately everything I just listed above over powered all that. If you read this far down, I want you to know that ALL DONATIONS GO DIRECTLY TO ANY AND ALL HER FUNERA EXPENSES (church, funeral home, casket, tomb stone, etc….) & if any remaining donations after the funeral will go towards her children. So I thank you now greatly for your donations & even if you can’t donate, I truly mean it when I say this, even just sharing this too is a big help. Thank you All so greatly
