Melissa Leigh Meade/Rotella
October 23 1978 – June 24 2016
Died at the young age of 37 peacefully on the 24th of June 2016 at the Royal Alexandra Hospital. Loving and cherished wife of Kevin Rotella, mother of Matteo Rotella, daughter of Wendy Walsh (Meade) and partner Bert Sylvester, Dan Meade and partner Pat Ferry, sister of Philip Meade, William Meade, Danny Meade, mother in-law Nancy Rotella, father in-law Tom Rotella. Will be missed by all who knew her.
She was a loving, caring person with the biggest heart. Willing to care for life as we know it, and has touched all of our hearts to no end. She has left us with joy and happiness every time you were in her presence.
Honoring Melissa’s last wishes, cremation has taken place. A ceremony will be held at a later date.
She came into our lives with wispy green hair
Full of fun and adventure, without a care.
Her story has ended in the book of life,
A mother, a daughter, as sister and wife.
You showed courage without any fear,
As you fought to hold on to the life we hold dear.
Sadness has filled us, taken our hearts
Wishing you peace as your new journey starts.
Be at peace. We will always love you and miss that wispy green haired girl that brought a smile to our face and touched our hearts.
Our deepest sympathies to you and Mateo. You are the two bravest men we have ever known. Thinking of you always.

My dear second cousin, Melissa, (and once look a-like), you were more beautiful than I. You will always be in my heart and memories. Even though we drifted apart as we grew, I was so thankful to spend time with you at my wedding just a few years back. My condolences to Kevin, Matteo and family. Wendy, you and your sisters are always in my thoughts, my heart and strength goes out to you, Bert and Philip.
You were one of my best friends and loved every minute spent with you and your family. I will always remember the late nights playing risk with you and your dad. And catching up after 20 years. I will love you as a friend always and will be forever in my heart. Rest in peace Melissa. Till we meet again my friend. My deepest sympathies to Kevin, Matteo, Dan,Pat Phillip, Billy, Danny and Wendy.
Thank you Tammy
