 She was an avid motorcycle rider, owning her own custom Harley Davidson Deluxe, which she maintained in like new condition. She also enjoyed gardening, long motorcycle rides and taking her beloved dog Sammie for walks through the streets of Wyoming, Delaware, where all her neighbors welcomed her into her first new home of a life cut short by the scourge of cancer.

they loved to do together. Frank and Donna Kerpin were instrumental in a large way in helping her in her valiant battle against cancer.  Also, her brothers in Law Enforcement, who worked in the Dover, Delaware office of DHS that were always there to support her, even helping to relocate her entire household effects from Milford to Wyoming in less than

a day. And finally, her friend Kim Sterling, who when they were together were often asked if they were sisters. Kim is devastated by Melissa’s death and finds it hard to realize she will not have Melissa to ever ride with again.

‘Death leaves a heartache no one can heal…..love leaves a memory no one can steal’ ~
