Melvin, Tanaka,& I have been FRIENDS for 44 years.. They have both been in 2 weddings of mine!!! Melvin ALWAYS was full of HUMOR & kept you laughing!!! VERY DETERMINED to be an Entrepreneur with his INVENTION..."The MULE". I LOVED Melvin because he treated me as a SISTER...especially when my ONLY BROTHER passed!!! When it came to STYLE, FINESSE, & SOPHISTICATION, he possessed ALL those qualities...in fact I was hoping to find a GOOD man to marry that had many of his characteristics... luke knowing how to fix things & good working with his hands.Tanaka & Melvin were ROLE MODELS for what a Marriage looked like. He was a SMOOTH dancer & had a RADIANT smile. I'm going to miss my brother MELVIN, he is greatly MISSED
