Obituary
WEST, Melissa Reeves (nee) Letts on November 2, 2016 of West Milford, N.J., age 98.
Melissa was born on July 10, 1918 in Middletown, N.J. Before retiring she had worked as a
technician at Lever Bros.in Edgewater, N.J. Melissa was the happiest person in the world with a perpetual
smile. Her greatest joy was spending time with her grandchildren. She knew every fairy tale by heart and to her,
her grandchildren were the princes and princesses in every one. Her home was always fully stocked with the best treats a kid could ask for and the minute you arrived she was ready to get the party started.
When visiting her it was like going to Disneyland and Candyland at the same time.
She will be so greatly missed but will live on in the hearts and memories she has left behind.
Beloved wife to the late Edward West (1980).
Devoted mother to Edward West and his wife Julie and the late Kenneth West and his wife Diane.
Adored grandmother to Laura West, Eileen West, Kenneth West, Mark West and his wife Sue, Brian West and his wife Lori, and Michael West and his wife Cara.
Cherished great- grandmother to Scott, Peyton, Ava and Brooke.
Dear sister to Alma.
Melissa is also survived by many other loving family members.
The family will receive their friends Friday, November 4, 2016 at A.K. Macagna Funeral Home 495 Anderson Avenue
Cliffside Park, N.J. from 9-12pm. Interment to follow at George Washington Memorial Park Cemetery in Paramus, N.J.
