Dear Sizemore family. I am so sorry to have read of the death of Melba. Please accept my sincere condolences. I would like to share something that I have personally found to be comforting. It is found in the Bible at John 5:28, 29 and Revelation 21:4. (Please read) May God give you and your family comfort in His promise that soon we will never experience losing our loved ones in death and we will be able to see them again once they are resurrected. With deepest sympathy and warmth of heart.

My deepest heartfelt sympathy upon hearing of Ms. Melba's passing.My teenage years were very Blessed by knowing this lovely lady. I am sure our Heavenly Father welcomed her with open arms saying "welcome home my precious child". She was a beautiful lady with a huge heart full of love for all.
