Ruth, Suzanne and Doug, my heart is deeply saddened with the loss of your husband, father and my brother.
My thoughts and prayers are with you always.
My mind is now flooded with pleasant thoughts of our childhood and the times we spent in New Liskeard.
Of the Christmas of 1976 when he carried me down the stairs to the family dinner at mum and dad’s because I was unable to walk.
There are many, many more memories to share at a later time.

Ruth & Family:

This is very sad news to hear. He was a loyal employee and friend who you could always count on to help with any charter or project that needed help. His boots, belt and hat will always come to mind when thinking of the good old days. My heartfelt condolences to the entire family.

Condolence from Barry Hutchinson on November 10th, 2018 10:29 pm

I really enjoyed my times with Tex over the years. My sincere condolences to Ruth, Suzzane and Doug.

Condolence from Doranne on November 12th, 2018 8:46 am

Dear Ruth:

I was so saddened to hear of Mel’s passing. I was always struck by his thoughtfulness in looking after his own and his neighbours and you always felt that if you asked him he would do what he could for you.
My memory of Mel is one of a natural gentleman. When my husband and I walked to the end of our street to enjoy the Victories Day Fireworks one year – there was Mel and Ruth sitting on their lawn chairs enjoying the show. I tapped Mel on the shoulder to say hello and when he turned around and saw me standing there he immediately got up and asked me if I wanted a seat – his seat – that he brought down – for himself. I will always remember that act of a true gentleman. A gentle and thoughtful soul.

Much love to you and family Ruth.

Condolence from Heather Brunet on November 13th, 2018 6:51 pm

Ruth, Sue and Doug

I am so sorry to hear of Mel’s passing. As you know I am very acquainted with grief right now, so I will hold you in my thoughts and prayers during this time. I didn’t hear in time to join you.

Jon and I send our love.
