I was so surprised and saddened to learn about Mendy’s passing. I worked with her for several years and she was always such a blessing. She had a servant’s heart and was always willing to help. My thoughts and prayers are with the family during this holiday season. May God hold you close and comfort you as only He can.
With deepest sympathy,
Very sad to learn of Mendy’s passing. With deepest sympathy to her family and friends.
I had the chance to be Mendy’s first boss at Michelin, as she was my admin at TCAR/T. I had never seen such a nice person, altruistic, always dedicated to others. She brought a lot to my Team, and to me.
Her behavior and mindset was the same in her personal life. I know she did a lot for her whole family.
I will keep in mind all the good moments of fun we spend together, especially during TCAR/T offsites, and I will keep Mendy in my heart.
Sincere condolences to her family, and to Tom in particular, who I have met a couple of time.
Mendy, since november 22 I am so sad,it is very hard to know you left us…. but I want to remember your smile, your kindness, our philosophical discussions of life and our laughs..thank you for all the moment we spent together .
I really miss you, I will never forget you ..love.
Tom, my sincere condolences to you and your family.
Mendy, my regret is not spending more time with you. Mendy’s kind and giving spirit will live on in all the lives she touched. I pray for the family, as I know your hearts are broken. May God Bless you and keep you and make His face to shine on you and give you peace.
A beautiful person left us, wholehearted & so kind. My sincere condolence to her family.
Mendy, we will miss you but certainly never forget you. Your kindness and willingness to help was unique. My deepest sympathy to your family.
I had the honor and the pleasure to work with Mendy as she was our department admin. Mendy was such a caring person for her teammates, her neighbors and above all her family !
I still have in my ears her happy ‘Hellooo, how can I help you ?’ and her tireless kindness. She will be greatly missed but not forgotten.
My thoughts and prayers are with your whole family and your community.
Mendy I love and miss you very much. Now you and my mama can cut up all you want and not get in trouble. Praying for the family.
All my love

Mendy she was straight to the point, open to change, hard worker but most of all she genuinely cared about her family friends and co workers. She would always find the positive outlook on life and pray for those in need. I am glad to have been apart of her friends chain as we woke many times about family and praying for those who need it. One day we will meet again in Heaven my friend until then fly high and enjoy those wings!
