Hello all. My name is Chris Mellon. I am the son of Liz and Ed Ginocchio. I have never been to this website but I know my parents go to it often. For those of you who don't know, they are the owners of Golden Reef Inn. I just wanted to ask all of you, who know my parents, to keep my mom in your thoughts and prayers. As most of you know, my mom is going in for brain surgery on Dec. 1st. I pray and hope that all goes well. Also, any persons booking to Golden Reef Inn over the next few weeks, please have patience as I will be taking over for my mother. Thanks!

Chris, we will all pray for Liz and for the rest of the family. I don't know Liz except through BT but I feel like I have known her for a long time. Love her posts here. Tell her we will watch for her on the posts. Andy

Hi, Chris! We met you last year with Liz and Ed at Lorraine Meadow's cocktail party at the big villa in Belnem (I was the large blonde!). You and I chatted for a while about the service and your new job in AC (we live in Morristown, NJ). You are a wonderful young man and your Mom is a sweetheart.

You are all in our prayers and thoughts. If you need any type of assistance with the Inn just let us know...we will all jump in and help you out in a heartbeat.

I do hope everything will go well and that Liz will on the road to a full and complete recovery very quickly. Hang in there, Chris! Carole

To my wonderful son,

WHAT A SHOCKING SURPRISE! You are something else. Thanks so much, you will do fine with the Inn. I love you.

Hi Chris and welcome! Your mom is already and will continue to be in lots of our thoughts and prayers!!!

Darlene, I'm with you, I have tears streaming down my face! Chris, what a sweetheart, and Liz, you will come out with flying colors gal!

Ditto to Ruth as well, stay strong!

Oh, man, Now I am going to cry! Liz, you have a very wonderful and caring son. Chris, you will make your mamma proud, I'm sure! Liz, you will pull through this like a champ, I know, you are a very strong person. Ed, you take care of Liz and yourself and Chris and just hang in there. It's hard right now, but this too shall pass and the rainbow is just around the corner. Love to all of you! Debbie

Liz, new dates noted, looking forward to seeing you both, hope the timing works out for you.
I got my fingers crossed for ya.

Liz, how blessed you are to have Chris for a son. We will keep you all in our prayers. You have so many people in your corner that everything will go great. Chris, I am sure you will do your mother proud and get along just fine.

Chris, you can be proud of both Liz and Ed. I have met them several times on Bonaire and they are great. Your mama is a strong lady, she will handle this because she is loved by so many people.
We will pray and think about her all the time
Hang in there!

Angela and Martin

Liz and Ed, you are so blessed with this boy

Chris Liz and Ed are in my thoughts and prayers daily...my daughter Alison and I met them this past summer at Gibi's and they are wonderful folks! Hugs, Barbara Leary

Liz, our thoughts and prayers go out to you. We will say a special prayer for you on Dec 1. Joan & Alan

Liz,
I haven't been adding to this because I just can't. As everyone says, you have a great kid.

I believe you will get through this, because there is just so much positive energy and so much love and prayer and strength all focussed your way.

I too will be thinking of you and praying for you on Dec. 1.

We're keeping you and Ed in our prayers too.
