Seymour
Melodie Kay Redford “Mel,” died at the age of 65 on May 9th in Seymour, Indiana. She is survived by three children who will forever be impacted by her life and love, Christopher Vic Polk Jr (wife, Kelly, children Amaya, Schuyler, Angelina), Katina Kay Redford Kindle (husband, Greg, children Tyler & Zachary), and Melissa Marie Clemens (children, Kayla & Samuel). She is greatly missed by her mother Sharon Kay Myers, and siblings Ricky Ray Neal, Monica Joy Dillion, and Rosemary Irene Myers. Her loss is also felt by numerous extended family and friends.
Mel worked hard and loved fiercely. She poured her life into her family and always gave a hand up to those in need. She was employed by Cummins for 25 years and was a member of the American Legion. She loved playing in the dirt to grow things, woodworking, camping, riding her motor trike, and spoiling her dogs Molly & Abby.
She would be angry that we are making a big deal of her life, but she deserves it, and we will smile, cry, and celebrate the wonderful woman that she was.
