David Floyd Melanson, age 61, passed away unexpectedly at his home in Springhill.  Born in Springill, David was a son of the late Kenneth Lloyd Melanson and Helen "George Anne" Reid.

David worked for some years in both New Brunswick and Calgary Alberta but always said there was no place like home, Springhill.

A real Mr. Fix-it, David specialized in small engine repairs. He was always willing to give a helping hand to all.

David is survived by his step-daughter, Emma Vaughn and step-son, Michael Vaughn; uncle, Hugh (Teresa) Reid, Halifax; aunt, Margaret Reid; cousin, Robb Reid Currie and best friend Steve Varner, Springhill.

David was predeceased by his wife, Shelley (nee Vaughn); brother, Hugh; step-mother, Jean Melanson; aunt, Rosemary (Reid) Mullins; uncles, John and James Reid, and great uncle, Neil Noiles 

Arrangements are under the care and supervision of A.H. Brown Funeral Home, 5 McFarlane Street, Springhill, NS (902-597-2361).  Honouring David's wishes, cremation has taken place.  A Graveside Service will be held on Tuesday, August 3, 2021 at 11:30 am at the North Street Roman Catholic Cemetery, Springhill.
