Melba, you welcomed everyone into your life and made them feel special. Your enthusiasm and zest for life was infectious to all of those around you. You welcomed me into the family and you were an amazing grandmother to our children. You leave behind a wonderful legacy of acceptance, love and joy for life for your family and friends. Loved beyond words and missed beyond measure.

I am so blessed to have been able to call you my nana..you were one of a kind.
You made everyone feel special and included from the very first hello. From your outspoken mischief stories to your oversharing of how we all came to be.. you allowed us to be crazy and wacky we always knew we were forever loved.
Thankyou for being my nana and my boys special nana. We were lucky to call you ours!
