Mel (Lee) Draper   (1946 ~ 2021)

Mel passed away Saturday Oct 9th @ 4:35pm.

He went into the hospital for a slip and fall.  Five days in a nurse pricked herself with a needle while working with him and afterward contracted COVID-19.  Mel had been vaccinated.  He went down hill from there and his body started shutting down.

His daughter was able to get him home a little over 24 hours before he passed.

His funeral was Oct 25th in Chico, CA.

There is a gofundme posted on his Facebook as well that of his daughter Donna Draper Shepard due to the fact his death was definitely not expected.
