My deepest sympathy to Jim/Vonda and Jacqueline Melton as I know they have have loved and honored Jim’s parents as they took care of both Donald and Joyce throughout they’re lives. My condolences to Joyce’s recent husband, Jimmy as well. Joyce will be missed. I have witnessed Jim Melton work tirelessly caring for Joyce when they sold their home and built a new home to live with and care for Joyce. May God Bless, comfort and provide all that is needed.
