“To honor the memory of Melvin A. Suokas To have, to hold, and then to part— the deepest sorrow of the heart. We are thinking of you during this time of sorrow. Please accept our condolences from Finland. Melvin was a cousin to our mother, Elvi Rahko (née Suokas). We were happy to meet Melvin here in Finland in 2007. From the visit we remember Melvin’s warm smile and the 'Suokas outlook' he had. With sympathy, Raija and Ilkka Roitto Arja Rahko Juhani and Liisa Rahko Riitta and Kai Järvi”
