Virginia Payne wrote a sympathy message

“I have wonderful memories of Melissa. I enjoyed summers in Alberta visiting my grandmother, Cherie (Virginia Bragg) and hanging out with Melissa and her boys. I especially loved riding horses with her, which I continued to do even after college. Melissa wasn't much younger than my mother Joyce (who died when I was 5) so she would share stories/adventures that she had with my mom which I treasured. Melissa was very special to me - I always think of her whenever I smell honeysuckle. Ginna”
