Brenda, I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your son! I lost my only son, Steve Lambert, in July, so I know exactly what you are going through! Don't know if you remember, but he was Freddie Lambert's son, also. I know that if former State Attorney General, Buddy Caldwell knew about your loss he would send a message to you! I will let him know, asap! Praying for you, Brenda!

I worked with Mike at Uniroyal for several years starting in the early 90's. I was there on and off for 16 years. He was such a great guy. To the Melancon family, I'm so sorry for your loss. He will be missed by all that knew him. He and everyone there called be Bigun.

Mike was a great role model and father to our boys Tristen and Landon Loyd. He was taken way to early and I will miss his support and help. May he rest in peace. Me and my family hearts are with Stephanie, Mikah, Buddy, Hayden, and his family.
