Memories/Recollections
Selected quotes from her obituary page:
"I'll always remember Mel for the conversations we had at conventions and her welcoming personality. In fact it almost never felt like a real convention until I saw her there and we had a chance to catch up. So many of us will miss her.
"I knew Mel for decades through conventions and she wrote for my publications. I remember once at a convention someone asked her what she wrote and I said she could write anything. She told me that was the highest praise she’d received. She will be missed by so many."
