My beautiful sister and my hero. There will not be a day that passes where I will not be thinking of you. Melanie was such a good organiser and brilliant at bringing the family together whether it be for a holiday away, a surprise party or just a general family catch up. We have lost the chief of our family - our head girl. I always had so much respect and admiration for our Melanie. She was so fun to be around and loved her family deeply. I actually ended up living with her on two separate occasions and she treated me like I was her son. She was always so calm and easy going. Melanie was always thinking of others. The hardest part for me is that Melanie was like having a younger mother who I could go to. Eventually, she would have taken on this role in the future if we lost our mum. To not have Melanie in my life seems unimaginable and I don't know what I am going to do without her. If I had one wish in life, it would be to bring Melanie back. Maybe we will meet again my dear sister. We love you so much - Alex, Charlotte, Arlo & Bodhi xxxx
