Raised in the Munson area, later moving to Drumheller, where he attended school, while in High School, he was very involved in Drama, Theatre, acting in many plays, he really enjoyed this. After graduation he went to Edmonton for schooling to become a tailor. He worked many years at Bill Cross Men’s Wear as a tailor and selling clothing. In 2001 he purchased the store and ran it along with his wife Maureen until 2016. Mel leaves to mourn his loving wife of 40 years, Maureen (nee Moar) and their “only child” lovingly called Willow. He is also survived by his sister Carol (Tom) Hampton, their children and families, mother-in-law Alice Moar, brother-in-law John (Wanda) and their family.
