While working at ComEd, Mel and I crossed paths often. He was a type of a person who would leave a mark on you in a positive way. I remember him telling a story or a joke and he would have this big smile and then those eyes would widen. He created many laughs. He was gentle giant and will be missed. My condolences to the McFarland family. RIP Big Mac.

Dear Judy and family of Mel McFarland - I am so sorry for your loss. I knew Mac in our high school days, he a basketball player at Joliet Central while I was a wrestler at Lockport West. Then, our time working together at ComEd. I'll never forget that huge smile and gentle-giant, warm heart. Prayers and thoughts for you during this time. Tom Lambert

My late husband Jay worked with Melvin at ComEd. He only told wonderful
stories of their working adventures and that Mel was a wonderful man.
They can speak to each other again in Paradise now.
My sincere condolences to his family. Genny Wheeler

McFarland Family, my deepest and sincere condolences in the loss of Mel. Mel was a role model and someone that I truly respected as a young athlete, growing up in the Joliet area, in the 70's. I will forever be grateful for the examples that he set for many of us to follow. God Blessings.

I have many good memories of Mel. As classmates of JT Central ‘71, we stayed in touch. He was a good guy and kept you laughing. My condolences to Judy and family.
