A Message From John

Founder John H. Melchinger – 1948 – 2015

John

I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright no matter how gray the day may appear… enough rain to appreciate the sun even more… enough happiness to keep your spirit alive… enough pain so that even the smallest joys in life may appear bigger… enough gain to satisfy your wanting… enough loss to appreciate all you possess… enough hellos to get you through the final goodbye… I wish you enough… no more, no less.

Jayne Alford

Trading the Rocky Mountains of Western Canada for the Gulf of Mexico, I made Tampa my home with husband John. We discovered early in our relationship that a strong partnership is most important to us. We wed in a gazebo with family and friends in a mountain sunset ceremony. Now it’s a joy to pay it forward.
