As soon as he could walk, he was playing the game he loved. Mel played up to the professional level with the Toronto Marlies. He later coached for many years with great success teaching younger players to love the game as he did. Mel also loved golf and played it as much as possible. He taught his family a strong work ethic during his 32 years with GM. He loved his wife and family in his own way and tried to show it by working hard at all he did. Mel will be missed greatly but never forgotten!
