Vicki J Parker wrote a sympathy message

““I met Mel when I joined EDM Incorporated in 1985 where he was VP of Structural Engineering. He worked closely with PGAV for the renovation of the many Busch Gardens and Sea World Parks and designed the foundations of most of the coasters at BG, as well as ancillary buildings, queues, restaurants, etc. I later became part of the extended family when my niece, Jennifer, married the youngest son, Jeff. They are a close-knit, loving devoted family. To know Mel is to love Mel. RIP.””
