I had the Privilege to know Brother Melvin and Sister Ingrid Drone for a great number of Years, too many to recall. He is a Child of GOD and has left a Great Legacy for everyone to follow. He will always be remembered for his Humble Spirit, Smile, and Respect. He also had the ability to make you laugh. We are going to miss Bro Drone. May GOD Bless his Family, Loved One, and Friends. Remember "Absent from the Body, is Present with the Lord" Rest In Peace My Brother. Love You Sharon & Brandon πŸ™πŸΎπŸ˜‡β€οΈ
