Today is my sister’s birthday. I wish I could be down with her to celebrate her big day.
I want to tell you all what a wonderful sister Melodie is. She is five and a half years older than me, and I was her “first baby.” She cared for me like a little mother and was always more like a mother to me than a sister. I am so blessed to have her!
Mel is one of the kindest women that I know. She always has a smile and a warm greeting for those around her. She loves her family with her whole heart, rejoices in their successes, and comforts them in their sorrows.
Ron and Melodie
She has been married to Ron for 53 years. They met at summer camp at the age of 13 and wrote to each other for many years before their November 1971 wedding.
So today, on her 71st Birthday, I want to wish my beloved sister, Melodie, a very Happy Birthday!
My beautiful sister! I love you so much!
