💜Today would be the Birthday of Melodie.
Sadly she was taken away from us last year.
Life can be so unfair as Mel was an amazing person.
The world is poorer without her in it.
We miss you Mel.
Forever in our hearts.💜

Well done to Rahni Samason on a wonderful game for the Melbourne Vixens.
Mel would be so proud of you.
So are Hugh and I.
Great moment for Heatherton Football & Netball Club and the Samason family.

Melodie Aitken (Mel) was taken way too early from us.
She died on the 11th December 2020.
Aged 45.

I want to express my thoughts and prayers to the family and friends.

I also want to say that when I first met Mel, I meet a most extraordinary person who was a real pleasure to work with.

Mel always accepted any challenges that I gave to her.
From hosting the program Nothing but Net to broadcasting Netball Grand finals to even being part of the call team for Women’s Footy she performed these in a truly professional way.

Mel was always on the same page as me as we both felt it was a privilege to present the show to support Netball and we gave it the respect it deserved.

Together with Hugh their chemistry was enormous.

Mel was a real support to me, and I will never ever forget it.

I thank Bryan and Billy for sharing her with us over many voluntary hours of radio time on air.

Mel, I will never get over the fact you are no longer able to catch up with and talk to but thanks to podcasts I can still hear your marvellous work and that will give me some comfort as I process this major loss in my life.

Be assured you will be forever in my heart.

Rest in Peace my beautiful friend.

Sharpie.

Hello all SFNL Netball fans.
It’s not too late to donate to this.
Those that have already a huge thanks for that.
👏🏻
A quick update about Mel.
Unfortunately the cancer is now on the other side of her brain and it’s stage 4 and growing quickly.
The surgeons will not operate for fear of what could happen to her.
At the moment she can’t have chemotherapy as her blood counts are not good.
So please donate if you have not as this brain cancer is awful.
Mel will do her very best to fight this in her way.
Thanks heaps in advance.
Let’s 🙏🏻for Mel.

Hello NBN fans and all Netball fans.

As you maybe aware our wonderful host Mel had stage 4 brain cancer and typically she has handled this in her extremely positive way.

She is currently undertaking Chemotherapy and is doing well.
She has a long road ahead but she is doing all she can to not let it beat her.

Her beautiful sister is taking part in this walk and it would be wonderful if you can donate to this.

Mel has given a great deal to Netball and Women’s Football.
Any amount you can give will be awesome.

Thanks.
