Melony Bennet

October 31, 1963 — July 10, 2018

Brought to earth by an Angel on Halloween day of 1963, a naturally beautiful toe head was the surprise baby, but a very welcomed addition to the Foresee family.

Melony Foresee was the youngest of six, with sisters Sherry, Randi, Bonnie, Joyce along with poor Johnny, now a brother to five sisters with only one bathroom. As the Foresee clan grew the unparalleled love that their Mother showed and gave them provided their foundation to all blossom into beautiful adults. Melony's utmost compassion, love and caring that her Mother shared with her became Melony's way of life, she was always full of love, compassion and smiles for anyone and everyone she met, whether an old friend or a new acquaintance you would greeted with smiles and love, and Melony was a hugger, she would hug anyone, even if you hadn't bathed for a week up camping you'd get a hug, it was just the way she was, she had so much love pouring out of her soul and she felt it was very important to share her abundance of love and compassion. Melony left a warm lasting impact to all of those whom were fortunate enough to cross her path on this journey of mortal life.

In her teenage years, her and her friends were cruising Yellowstone when a young man caught a glimpse of her beautiful eyes, who after that night became the luckiest boy, man, person alive, that young man, Ralph Bennet, would be the privileged one that was able to spend his life with hers. As the teenage romance escalated they planned the date of July 3rd 1981 for the beautiful bride and groom to vow their lives together and forever.

In July of 1985 a little bundle joy, Christopher Steven Bennet was added to the young couple to start their family, five years later Ryan Michael Bennet completed the Bennet family and Melony's love for her boys and family became the most important thing to her, and that importance provided her unlimited love and compassion to grow infinitely and the special bonus awarded to her was a wonderful life full of happiness and joy, millions of happy and good memories, tons of smiles for anyone, and lots of laughs.

Melony enjoyed life to its fullest until one dreadful day in November of 2016 when a horrible cancer inside of her took over and stripped her of her smiles and laughs but Melony was tough and a fighter to live like no other, her cancer Doctor said that she was one of the strongest, toughest, most determined women that he had seen in many years, indicating his acknowledgement of the power of love that this beautiful woman had. After radiation to the tumors in her belly, then chemotherapy, then brain radiation, then more chemo the damn cancer just kept eating away at her until it became more than this, so full of life woman, and her sweet body could handle. Melony succumbed to this horrible disease of her body in the early morning hours of July 10th 2018 at 54 years young, oh but she had so much more love to share. She left behind her cherished boys Chris and Ryan and the love of her life Ralph, they are heartbroken and left with holes that take a long time to fill.

Melony loved beautiful things and one of her favorite beautiful things were Flowers, she loved flowers of all types and colors, and her backyard flower garden was her Oasis of Peace and Serenity. So please don't send expensive cut flowers but instead please buy and plant in your yard, a perennial flower, bush or tree in her memory that will live on. Thank you so much to everyone for being a part of her life, I'm sure you all will treasure the memories of this beautiful soul each and every day.

Melony always loved Bluebirds and our beautiful Angel went to fly with the cherished Bluebirds the other morning.... the pain and suffering are finally gone and may she find peace now, Somewhere Over the Rainbow..

She will be Greatly Missed but Never Forgotten…Until we Meet Again.
