Life story

It saddens me to share the news with all of you that our sweet Melissa gained her

Heavenly wings this morning & is now with the Lord. Although this is devastating to our family, we find comfort in knowing Melissa was greeted at those beautiful gates surrounded by family with open arms, is no longer having to struggle physically on a daily basis, & has a new body that has finally been made whole. For the first time in 39 years, she can walk, jump, dance, talk, & see all the beauty Heaven has to offer. From the moment she was born, she's been our family's "little angel" & she now holds that title with the most truth. She was so loved by our entire family, & any person that was lucky enough to meet her. We will miss her so much, especially that smile, but know we will see her again when we get to Heaven.
