Janice Johnston wrote a sympathy message

“Dear Mellor family, I had the pleasure of working with Rick at Rideau High School for a number of years, and I would see him at Nepean as well where my own sons attended. He added a spark to every conversation, and every classroom. Such a personality! Please know that he made an impact and I am very sorry for your loss. Janice Johnston”
