many fond memories of Melvin growing up in my Teen years. We would pick on each, go fishing, argued about who caught the biggest and the most, R.I.P Sir! Prayers for the family at this time of loss

Ginger, children and grand children of Melvin Copeland Sr. My heart goes out to all of you at the loss of someone so special. Melvin was one of a kind.He was always there when you needed him. He could put a smile on your face when you couldn't. Those of us who were blessed to have known him know how wonderful he was will never forget him. I can still remember his crazy fun ways. Melvin was always doing things even when started having issues with his heart he still got out and worked. I thank GOD for allowing me to have known such a Great man as my friend. I will care my memories of Melvin in my heart. Ginger if I can do anything for you or the family please let me know.I love you all.
