To the Holyfield family. Melissa was like a daughter to me. I will miss her dearly. I pray that God will strengthen your hearts today and the days to come. God bless you all.

Today, my heart is heavy as I say goodbye to a close friend—Melissa was a sister, a fellow warrior, and one of the purest souls I've ever known. From the day we met in college to the years we stood side by side in service, her strength, compassion, and unwavering loyalty left a mark on my life that can never be erased.

God has called one of His angels home. While the pain of her absence is incredibly tough, I find some peace in knowing that her journey on this earthly plane is complete, and she has returned to the place she truly came from—back to His arms, where there is no more suffering, only light.

Melissa lived with purpose, served with honor, and cherished those she kept close. She brought warmth and courage wherever she went, and those of us who were lucky enough to know her will carry her memory like a badge of honor.

Rest easy now, my friend. Your mission here is done, and you completed it with grace and valor. Until we meet again—thank you for your friendship and your service.

My deepest condolence to Melissa's family. Praying for you all! 🙏🏾

I was stationed with Melissa at FE Warren and Patrick AFBs, but I got to really know her at AFTAC. She was a joyful person with a big smile. My wife and I really enjoyed spending time with her and we are sad to see her leave this world so soon.

My condolences to Melissa's family and friends. God has gained a new Angel. Sending prayers up and out to the family. I can remember you calling and singing the last two dollars I'm not going lose. Always cheerful and brighten up everyone's day. You will be missed my sister.🙏🏾🩷🙏🏾🩷

MY SINCERE CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY. MAY SHE REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE! EDITH GINWRIGHT-WASHINGTON, MONTGOMERY, ALABAMA

Melissa, we have been trying to wrap our heads around that you are now with our Heavenly Father. You were a force to be reckoned with. You fight for the ones you love so fiercely, mentored those so passionately, and stood your ground in those and things you believed in. Your smile and glares (lol) may have dimmed a bit on Earth but the path that you have blazed and the love that you have given to us and our boys will forever shine bright here on Earth. We are so blessed to call you our sister and auntie. We are comforted to know that you are no longer suffering, and you can now rest your armor beautiful. To the Holyfield Family, we will continue to pray for comfort and love for you all. I know you are so proud of the woman, daughter, sister, soldier, and fighter that she was. We love you and we are always here for you.

Melissa was a great friend and will be missed. I can hear her laugh, and our prayer is that you will hear her laugh and smile in the days to come. May the Lord comfort you all.

Melissa, I'll always think fondly of the good ol early Lt days at Vandy hanging out with you and the crew. Great times! Bright, joyful and fun to be around. I'm glad we got to reconnect yrs later at the Pentagon and at Johnny's Chance of Command. You'll be missed.

Melissa was a beacon of light, radiating zest and zeal for life in everything she did. It was both an honor and a privilege to serve alongside her. Her spirit, kindness, and energy will be deeply missed and always remembered.

Your zest for life and joy was infectious. I'm thankful to God for you and the love you so freely shared. Rest in peace, comfort and love Sister!!! I miss you already!!!!

Mel, I remember our days in New Delhi playing volleyball, socializing with friends, and living life the way it was supposed to be lived. We had a great time and created many memories. Rest easy Mel. I know you and Nate are in Heaven getting reacquainted and will be watching over us until we join you. Much love, my friend. See you soon!

To Eugene, Mary and family: I'm so sorry to learn of Melissa's passing. I extend my sincere condolences and prayers to you. May God continue strengthening and comforting you during this difficult time. Clementine White Atlanta, GA
