We are heartbroken over the tragic deaths of CSS Board Treasurer Melissa Dunham and her children, Renee, Amber and Evan. 

Melissa joined our board of directors in 2015 and had served as chair of the finance committee, as well as treasurer. She worked at Bober Markey Fedorovich & Co., where she recently was made partner. In the community, she was an enthusiastic supporter of the Girl Scouts of Northeast Ohio. Her daughters – both Girl Scouts – teamed up with their respective troops to put together and donate bags of personal care items for people using our Homeless Outreach Center. 

A memorial service is planned for Melissa and her children at 7 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 31, at Evermore Community Church, 1470 Smith Kramer St. NW, Hartville. The service also will be livestreamed at evermorecc.org/livestreams and on the Evermore Community Church Facebook page.

Our thoughts are with their family and friends as they navigate this unimaginable loss.
