Melanie June Freeman Goble passed away January 27, 2022, days after her 58th birthday.

Melanie was born in Polk County on January 24, 1964 to parents James L. and June J. (Anderson) Freeman and remained a resident of Polk County her entire life. She loved animals and the outdoors, had a green thumb, and most of all, she loved to fish – anytime and anywhere.
