Memorial Service for Melissa Harper

I know that an e-mail went out to pretty much everyone in the courthouse, yesterday, but in case you didn't receive the information regarding Melissa's Memorial Service, here it is.

There will be a Memorial Service and a Celebration of Life for Melissa Harper on Sunday, April 27, 2008 at The Parador, 2021 Binz, Houston, Texas 77004 at 2:00 p.m.

For those few of you that might not have known Melissa, she was a very loved and respected defense attorney here in Houston who will be deeply missed. Please keep Kelli and the rest of the family in your prayers and thoughts.

The family is asking that in lieu of flowers, donations be made to either the DePelchin Children's Center, 4950 Memorial Drive, Houston, Texas 77007 or Citizens for the Protection of Animals (CAP), 11925 Katy Freeway, Houston, Texas.

Thank you to Angela Beavers for getting this information out.

Also, thank you to all of Melissa and Kelli's friends and family who have written so many wonderful things about her below.

I came across this blog earlier today. I am trying to get a hold of whoever was left in charge of Melissa's files. I need to get my hands on a trial transcript for a case she worked on. Any suggestions??? My condolences go out to her friends and family. Though I did not know Melissa personally, it sounds like she was a great woman who will be missed dearly.
