  6. I was so sad to hear of the passing of Uncle Lou. I was shocked and sad most of all that his Family was not invited to say there final Goodbye and Farewell to a wonderful Man. Rest In Peace Uncle Lou for You were Loved By All Of Us.

  7. To my father, Louis Melto, the love that mom and I possess for you is STRONGER than steel and FOREVER eternal. We know you are in peace from the HELL you survived during your childhood. We will DEFEND YOU until the day we leave this earth.

    To this “person” Kathy Posey: THE FAMILY WHO “LOVED” MY FATHER, HAVE PROVEN WHAT KIND OF HUMAN BEINGS THEY ARE. I have never met you, never want to, & am repulsed by the horrendous words you wrote. You are a stranger.You didn’t know my father, let alone, love him. You are not my father’s niece, he was not your uncle, and you are not our family. Let me be clear: WE ARE MY FATHER’S FAMILY!!!!!

    This is a TRIBUTE to my father. His mind, heart, & soul, were FAR ABOVE the evil he was bound to by relation. We know what happened to him, & we will defend him against that hatred with our undying love.

    Keep my father’s name out of your mouth.

    WITH ALL OF MY HEART AND SOUL,

    DIONNE NICHOLE MELTO
