Melissa Peery Laughlin

God has truly brought an Angel home. I was blessed to have known Melissa - she was the most genuine person I've ever known and will ever know. To the family, especially to Ali,
God will give you strength, comfort and peace. Look to Him and know that Melissa is looking down on you.

My deepest sympathy to Melissa's family. It was so sad to hear of the news of her passing. Keeping all in my prayers as you go through this week of remembering her and saying your good-byes.

Kevin, Allison & family: We are truly sorry for your loss, may God wrap you and comfort you during this time. Our hearts and prayers are with you continuously..

Our prayers are with you and your family Kelli....So sorry we couldnt be there due to Garys back surgery...love you so much

You will be missed Melissa. You were a good friend, classmate and neighbor.

God has recieved another Angel in Heaven. My thoughts & prayers are for her family and friends. My heart is heavy with sadness due to the loss of such a wonderful, young , loving Mother, Wife, Daughter, Sister and Friend. May God wrap His loving arms around her family and guide them though this terrible time.

I've only had the privilege of meeting sweet Melissa, twice through you Kelli. I could feel the holy spirit radiate through her when she spoke, through her eyes and through her smile. Her love for Christ was evident in not only her words, but her actions. She was an angel on this earth and is now an angel in heaven. My heart hurts for you Kelli, for Alli, for your Mom and Dad, and for your whole family. I am at a loss for words but pray that you somehow find comfort and peace of mind. Her unselfish act of kindness, was something she did naturally and knowing that she saved 5 more lives as an organ donor, only validates who Melissa was. Unselfish, Kind, Loving Mother, Sister, Daughter, Aunt, Friend, Niece, Aunt, Great-Aunt. Melissa, I am going to miss you dear friend, but I won't Ever forget you. When I see a rainbow, I will see you. When I see a butterfly, or hear birds chirping, or hear the leaves rustling, I will think of you. You made a huge impact on my life. You once told my mother "I want to be like you". Well now, It's me saying to you "I want to be like you". I love you, sister!

My sincere sympathy to the family.

Our heartfelt prayers to the Laughlin and Peery Families. God's peace be with you all.~ Dani (Daneen) and Mark Eller

Our thoughts and prayers are with Melissa’s family and friends. May God grant each of you comfort and peace. We will never forget that sweet, sweet smile. She was an awesome person providing many memories to cherish.

Love,
Kristi and Kevin Shelton
