Heartbroken & shocked to loose one of my oldest & dearest friends, Melissa. Loved our coffee catch-ups, the shoulder for my worries and the giggles for fun. Always such a sincere beautiful soul. Her body hugs were legendary! You are always with me Melissa. I'll carry you in my heart❤forever.

It's with sadness I write this message. My thoughts are with family at this terribly difficult time. Melissa was always so enteric, kind and naturally happy and fun to be around. I hope the great memories of her get you all through this very difficult time.

Melissa was a very popular member of the Napier IR Child support team and we really missed her when she moved to Palmy, I had managed to touch base again recently on my return to IR & as above she was so bubbly and positive and happy with life in general - we laughed a lot in our catch up & really had a good old chin wag ! Something we all know Melissa loved. Condolences to all her family including our very important work family both in Palmerston North & Napier. We miss ya Melissa. From all the team from the Good ol'days in Napier !

We were so shocked and saddened to hear of Melissa's passing. She was such a beautiful, jovial and bubbly lady. Our thoughts go out to all her family and friends and she will be greatly missed.

Whilst I didn't know Melissa as such, we used to pass each other on the way to work, going in different directions, and would always say hello or wave to each other. One day Melissa stopped me and introduced herself - she seemed such a lovely genuine person, very bubbly and happy. My thoughts are with all her loved ones.

So very sorry to hear this news. Melissa was a lovely person and so full of life. My most sincere condolences to family.
