RIP. Prayers for the family!

My thoughts and prayers are with Melvin's family. Blessed to have him as a friend and to have worked with Melvin through our different roles at Lincoln Parish School Board, especially during the Bus Driving courses he taught at the school board office. He would always arrive early before classes began to make sure the "technology" was working and ready to roll. Cheering on each of our grandsons, Brycen and Max, and their teammates from the bleachers and stands during basketball and football games will be a treasured memory. May precious memories provide each of you a peace and comfort in the coming days.

So sorry to hear about Mac. Praying for you and your Family. Love to you all Sharon

Tracy, I’m so sorry for your loss. Mac was a good man. You have my deepest sympathy. Wishing you peace, comfort, courage, and lots of love at this time of sorrow. My heart goes out to you and your family at this difficult time. Wishing you the best. Love ya gurl! Traci

Mac was a good man and loved very much by his family. He has gone to be with the Lord with no more pain. Thoughts and prayers sent.

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Mac and I go back to high school 1973. He was my oldest and dearest friend. We had some pretty fun times together hunting and fishing all over north la. He was a friend that had your 6 whenever it was needed. I could always depend on him to help out on just about anything needed. I moved away in 1989 and we kind of lost track of each other until 3 months ago when he called me out of the blue to tell me he was dying.........I have lost my best friend. Thanks for always being their Mac.

Please accept our deepest condolences for your family's loss.
