To the Melilli Family, my heartfelt condolences to you all…I am sending prayers and love ….I will miss her bounding out of the house when David and I return from a dig wanting to know “what’cha get?” “did you find the big one?”…She was quick to give me a hug and loved when i stayed for dinner….She traveled a hard road in life, I pray she is at peace….
I extend my deepest condolences to the Melilli family. Nancy will be missed by all those who knew and loved her. She will always be part of my fondest memories. I’m sending all of you love and prayers at this difficult time.
Nancy I will never forget our good times we had in the neighborhood. Even though we lost touch as we moved on the Bridgeview Rd and Locke Dr crew always had fun. Thoughts of you will never be forgotten. To the family of Nancy I’m very sorry. Peace Nancy
