" We're just totally torn apart right now, the family you know. Melinda really loved her job. She was very safe; she was on the safety committee. She took pride in it, doing her work," brother David Carter said,
"You know, she was my rock. She was my rock. She's my rock," said the victim's mother Delores Carter.
