I'm late hearing about Uncle Mel's passing, he was such a great person, we had a lot of fun times, He called us the Pinehill kids, He took all of the neighbourhood kids in and spoiled all of us. We always went riding on the four wheeler, searching for golf balls, Getting copper wire ready for the junk yard, we even went to work with him some days in the big hoe, he used to teach us the big heavy machinery which was alot of fun and going down and having hot dogs on Sundays, thank you so much for cooking the fried onions Linda, they were delicious, Hotdog Sundays would not have been the same without them. Sending my Love and condolences to you.

My deepest condolences go out to Linda and all Mels loved ones. Mel loved children. He was a great role model to so many of us
Pinehill kids. My first memory of Mel was a snakebite on the arm. He loved to give kids a snakebite. Mel taught us to gut fish, strip Coper wire, drive heavy equipment, golf ball hunting, screen top soil and so much more. Mel gave most of us nicknames and never called us by our real names after that. Mel was a hardworking man. If we all worked hard we would get an ice Cream at the end of the day. Mel would always say save half for Tobey the old dog they had. Mel loved his Sunday hot dogs with all the neighbourhood kid. If we all showed up it was more than 12 kids and some of the parents. It wasn't just Sundays we would all be down there. Growing up in Pinehill was never a dull moment back in the day. So many great memory's. Mel will be missed by many. Sorry for your loss.

Thinking of all the family, at this time.....Mel enjoyed children, many times would take the neighbour kids into town for ice cream. Also on Sundays, had hot dogs for the kids, who ever was around to enjoy ,the Sunday with Mel.
When my grandchildren came home.Mel came to pick them up to hunt golf balls and have lunch. A lot of memories, of a good neighbour. He will be missed, by all

We first met Mel at Lizzy's over 3 yrs ago as we enjoyed coffee & breakfast.
Last summer, he was always coming around to help supervise road construction by the legion along with a few other seniors in the area.
He enjoyed his independence with the scooter , including curb side service at Poppa Jimmy's!
Heartfelt condolences to Mel's family & friends.
Praying peace and comfort for all.
