"Sorry to hear of Melvin?s passing. He was such a great roommate for my deceased husband Don Hodges. They had the Lennox and First United Methodists connection. I always loved to visit with him. He had great sense of humor. Tried to visit with him monthly with our UMW visits. Then the COVID - 19 kept out visitors. My condolences to your family. Edie Hodges"
