Melia was one of my favorite people. We worked together at the jail. She truly had a heart for the under dog and took very good care of anybody who pasted through the jail. I will miss seeing her around town and having a good conversation about what ever crossed our minds. I loved her dry humor, she always made me laugh. My condolences to Tommy,Kayli and Travis. To Linda, Calvin and Melissa, I send you my deepest sympathy. Praying for the entire family.

So sorry to hear of the passing of my best friend. She touched the heart of our fmily many years ago. Melia was a caring, loving, funny angel. She will be missed by all who had the priviledge of knowing this amazing lady. She had many things going against her, but kept going (many times putting others before herself).

Deepest Sympathy to all. Melia shine bright on us, you have gone home. Much Love.

Tommy, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of "McCurry." I really enjoyed working with her and laughing with her. She was at her best when she worked and I can still see her now, with her hand on her hip, shaking her head, saying "let me tell you this." Anyone who knew her is going to miss her. I pray for your strength.
