Melissa you will be missed by so many and I’m sure you had no idea how many people’s lives you touched. I hope the tree/ trees that are bought grow tall and strong xxxx…

It was a pleasure to have known and worked with Melissa since joining the ICB in April 2022….

It was such a pleasure to have known Melissa, she will always be remembered for her hard work and commitment, nothing ever seemed too much trouble or difficult when you talked it through with her. She will be missed by so many of her friends and colleagues. Sending my heartfelt condolences to her family xx…

Melissa… I still can’t believe you’ve been taken far too soon but you have definitely left an impression that will stay with us forever.  I can remember collecting you from Reception for your interview at LWCCG and thought as we walked along the corridor ‘what a nice lady’.  It has been a pleasure working with you over the years, through the good and the sometime, stressy times.  You kept your sense of humour and your sense of calm and got the job done, always.  The work you have done with Frailty has been amazing, your hardwork, commitment and drive.  Your legacy will continue.  My love and thoughts are with your family at this time.  Rest well twinkle, you will be missed and never forgotten.  Lots of love Lels xxx…

Seeing Melissa’s photo fiiled me with such sorrow that this wonderful and kind hearted soul has left us too soon. Then a thoughful smile recounting the years working together with a well respected colleague. While all around was chaos, Melissa was always the voice of reason and calm in a project “storm”. A real pleasure working with someone so decicated and professional, an example to us all. Even the hourlyu cuppa had to be a certain strength and as a result over squeezing the tea bags I still have skin missing from the end of my fingers! Rest in peace Melissa, you will always be in my thoughts. Deepest Condolences to the family xx…

I worked with Melissa for over 8 years, in that time we worked closely on many projects and programmes of work and through that work and shared time in the office we became friends, spending many lunch times walking round to Tesco, many times for no reason other than to put the world (and the NHS) to rights. I still can’t believe you are no longer with us, and I still expect to get a flurry of updates or requests for data for the next bit of work you are doing. I can’t imagine the loss your family will feel without you, and I send my sincere condolences to John, Eleanor and Noah. Melissa always conducted herself with such grace and professionalism, but it was privilege to have seen her personal side as well and was always the balanced, calming influence out of us all. I will miss the chats, the ‘Fish n Chips’ Fridays and fighting over the last bit of Thai curry, but they and you will NEVER be forgotten. Thank you for your kindness and your friendship….

I had the pleasure of working with Melissa, and her husband John, many years ago at Newark and Sherwood District Council and I can honestly say she was one of the kindest, most sincere people I ever worked with there.  Then, several years later, our paths crossed again when Melissa started working for the NHS.  It was only recently I had seen her in the office and was asking after John and her family, it was just like old times.  I will truly miss Melissa – she was always kind and generous and took a genuine interest in everyone – sleep well xxx…

Such a pleasure to have known you.  Remember always the laughter that you brought.  Sleep restfully….

Melissa you will be missed. Such a wonderful person, kind, caring and always with a smile. Sending my condolences to your family. xx…

Was a pleasure to know Melissa, warm, kind and committed to making things better. My thoughts are with her family and friends….
