Dear Cara, Rachel, Katie and Matthew, I just recently learned of your mom's passing. I am so very sorry. She was a wonderful mom and whenever I got to visit with her at parent teacher conferences, she beamed with pride and love when speaking of you kids. Please know that you will be in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs to you all! Ms. M.

To the Cavenaugh family, I cannot imagine what you are feeling right now with the news of your mother's passing. It seems unfair, too soon and our hearts break with you. Your mom heroically raised all four of you at a young age and your successes are all a testament to her strength and character. I don't understand God's timing but I do know that you are being surrounded by love and prayer. Your mom was an amazing woman and she will continue to live on through you. Thinking of you and surrounding you with prayers and love.

She touched the lives of both of my girls and made a huge impression! Not only was she a wonderful voice teacher, she was also a great listener and advisor. I enjoyed several deep conversations myself with Melanie...she will truly be missed. I am also great flu to her for raising such wonderful children. Cara has shown many of Melanie's characteristics as a friend and confidant to my daughter! Bless this family and thank you Lord for Melanie's presence in our lives.

We all send our love and are so sorry and shocked for your loss. Mrs. Cavanaugh will deeply be missed by all of us, especially Heather and Tori who have been taking voice with Melanie for the past four years. She surely has touched my girls lives in such a special way. Melanie will always have a special part in our family. Heavens choir is surely lucky to have their newest angel. She will always be looking over all of her students, friends and family. We love you Mrs. Cavanaugh.

I knew Melanie when we were students at Furman and even though we were a few years apart in age, she made a big impression on me with her friendship and her beautiful voice. She has left a wonderful legacy with her children and I am so happy that Katie is in our church choir - I see Melanie every time I look at her. My love and prayers go to her family.

I remember Melanie and Dudley with love and respect. I think of them often, and always feel deep appreciation for the countless things that they did for their entire family, and the Kingwood community. To Matthew and all of the Cavenaugh children and grandchildren, you have my sympathy and prayers for peace.

Melanie has been my friend since we first met during our student days at Furman. I count her as one of my closest college friends and looked forward to being with her for class reunions, especially the Singers Reunions when we once again were young and under the direction of our beloved, Dr. Bing Vick. She was witty, made us laugh with her antics and made our hearts full when she sang so beautifully. She has passed these traits to her four beautiful children and has left a rich and proud legacy. She will be missed!
