Memories

Several people have inquired about a place to share their memories of my father. I hope that this site can serve that purpose. Please email me your relections - tiffinylorraine@mac.com - and I'll copy them onto this site. Please include your name, even if it is just a first name. Thanks.

Martha


Melvin - what kind of memories do I have of him? Quite a few though they are are in some Bits & Pieces.

  • Melvin & I talking pros & cons of rental real estate vs. "fix um up & sell um".
  • Melvin & Jan being kind of a stand in family while I was in my one semester of college - & Jan coming to my dorm room.
  • Melvin talking about Nikki - one of the cousins on the Adams side that he liked to email.
Get this - I don't know how old it is - the picture of "The Rhodes Card" from Christmas with the MSU balloon. It has hung and continues to hang in my hallway with some of my other favorite pictures. (Note: The picture is from 1992.)

You see my memories of Melvin include his family - including Aunt Daisy Lee & Uncle Claiborne. I love all of you more than you will ever know or show (that's one of the Rhodes traits).
Love, Martha Rhodes Gill
