I am sorry to hear of Mels passing. He was always fun to visit with. If we had a nickle for every ton of feed he delivered we would be fine. Our Prayers are with you.Troy and Dolly Ferris

Sorry to hear about the passing of Mel. Everytime we saw and visited with him, he always had a big smile on his face. He was fun to visit with. We will miss him going in his wheel chair. Carlene and Clarence Root

We had the pleasure of Melvin’s friendship – we worked together at AgriBasics, then at Westfeeds. I (Rick) traveled countless miles together hauling feed and fertilize. He knew SO MANY stories about the countryside and the folks that lived there! We will miss our visits dear friend!
Our prayers for comfort are with all of Melvin’s family members!

Dear Family and Friends of Melvin Morgart – I’m so sorry to hear of your loss. May God give you peace and comfort through his sure promises to end pain, mourning and death (Revelation 21:4). At that time no one will say “I am sick” (Isaiah 24:33). Almighty God also promises to fulfill our desires, not just our needs (Psalms 145:16). Cherish all the happy memories of Mr. Morgart and be further comforted by the Bible (John 17:3).
