Her parents have both been ill this year so she has been going down to
San Antonio from the DFW-area every 3 to 4 weeks since March/April to
spend 3 day weekends helping them out around the house, running errands
for them and just being there for them. She is an only child.

Melinda went down to San Antonio this past weekend to spend quality
time with her parents for the weekend. Unfortunately, her dad passed
away early Friday morning at home. Melinda says it is truly a miracle
he passed away while she was there so she could be there for her mom.

Please extend your blessings and prayers for Melinda and her family
during this time.
