Radford Craig Melton, was an amazing Grandfather too me and my family. I had never seen someone who has a heartfull of passion of his dogs, more than anyone I know. He had lost Pita and Tux two of his four legged freinds which had made his heart ache every time. But he had his dogs Bones, Pinky, Gimli, Bella and chance. To keep a heart filled of joy during that heart breaking time. I will never forgot how strong he was during his three years of fighting his emotional cancer. My Grandfather Radford Craig Melton will always be in my heart always, missed but never forgotten I will always love him too the moon and back.

We had so much fun with Craig in the Vought Benefits Office. He was always laughing and pulling pranks to get a rise out of us. I have many fond memories of sweet Craigo and his pretty blue eyes.
