I am very sorry to hear of Jerry passing. I met he and Pattie when Katherine and Elizabeth were both babies through my former husband Alan Riddick, which use to be at one time, Jerry's best friend through school and afterwards. Still so sad to hear!!!

Jerry, You were a friend when I desperately needed a friend. You helped me through a difficult time in my life. You were a wonderful boss and teacher during our years at Lowe's on Whaley. We had some good times at that old store and I still remember you making me count and recount the inventory each year until we accounted for each and every item, that was the perfectionist in you. You were the best salesman Lowe's ever saw. Now you are working in God's lumber store. You will be missed.##imported-begin##Danette Shrum##imported-end##
To the family of Jerry Melton:
I worked with Mr. Jerry at Lowe's a few years back and really enjoyed being able to work with him. He was always very kind to me and was always willing to help me when I needed help. Then a few years down the road he came in to be one of our patients at the eye doctor where I work now and it was a joy to be back in contact with him in his last few months. I know that he is in a much better place now where he will no longer feel any pain!
God Bless your family and my thoughts and prayers will be with you!##imported-begin##Melissa Ross LeJunie##imported-end##
Tothe Melton Family-
I worked with Jerry at Lowe's and from the first day I met him, I knew I had a friend. Jerry was someone I could call on for help when I needed answers to questions. There were very few things that he could not answer, and if he couldn't he would get an answer and call me back. The store and especially the contractor desk will never be the same without Jerry and his dedication to good service and his great sense of humor! God bless you.
My thoughts and prayers continue to be with you.##imported-begin##Mary Hall##imported-end##
