I have worked with Meloney for five years. I was shocked and saddened by the news of her passing. My prayers and wishes go out to her family and all her relatives. I will forever miss her bubbly personality and constant smile. Meloney was not only a co-worker but a great friend. Her leaving will leave a hugh void in my life. I will do all I can to keep her memory around. Tragedies like this make no sense. All I can say is “WHY?”
