Melvin's obituary
Melvin was born on March 20, 1921 in Leesburg, FL to Wilmer Rinsor Mach & Rosetta Smithton. He loved keeping up with all his friends and family, facilitating Bible studies, entertaining others, telling stories, and most of all, being the King of the fishing community. Melvin enjoyed suppers with family, listening to oldies, “real country” and hymns, encouraging others, and sharing his love for Jesus with all. He was always making others laugh and ready to throw a good ol’ fashioned dad joke at you. Melvin had a sheer joy for life, family, and all who crossed his timeline.
Melvin is survived by his brother Brian (Glenda) Smithton and his six children; Robert Sr. (Belinda) Mach, Brandon (Delanee) Mach, Carrie (Jared) Fitzgerald, Susanne (Quentin) Mach, Steve (Barb) Garrett, and Nicholas Garrett (Gina Fletes)
Melvin is preceded in death by his parents, Wilmer and Rosetta Mach, sister Janie Barnes, wife, Myrtel Lynn Mach, son, Bruce Mach, and grandson, William Mach.
