Melanie Beth Lifer (46 years old) was born in Warwick (RI) on June 16th 1977. The daughter of Timothy and Peggy Parker, sister to Kimberly Parker-Prata.
Melanie had been married to her husband Ryan Lifer for 22 amazing years. Together they lovingly raised 3 strong children in Downingtown (PA): the oldest daughter Taylor (24), middle son Nathan (20), and youngest son Joshua (16). All of which now survive her. She was a clerk and a real estate accountant for several years in San Diego (CA), where she met her husband, before she became a stay at home mom devoting all of her time making constant memories with her family. In her free time she enjoyed walking, crafting, playing video games with her children, and fruit picking at Highland Orchards.
Melanie passed away peacefully in her sleep in the early morning of April 12th 2024 after her long 4 year battle with Huntingtons Disease. A small private ceremony will be held with her family in the future at her favorite place, Point Judith (RI).
Instead of flowers, the family requests that donations be made, in Melanie’s name, to the Huntington’s Disease Society of America (hdsa.org). We need to find a cure!
