Dora Bronston wrote a sympathy message

“Chaplain Melodee will be missed by myself and the many spiritual sons we both had at Warren Correctional. We taught and held religious services there. She was the access I had to prison ministry when she asked me to teach a class on Prayer. I've been in the prison system teaching for over twenty years now! There are many men who have sat under her direction as a chaplain. Those testimonies may not be heard by the family but God knows them! God bless you all and I will keep you in my prayers.”
