I am sorry to learn of Merrill’s passing. He and my mother, Shirley Hunter, were long-time neighbours for 45 years. Ironically, they have passed away within a month of each other. Sincere condolences to Merrill’s family at this sad time. He was a wonderful person.
My sincere condolences to Laurie and your entire family.
My great uncle Merrill was AMAZING! Always had a smile and that side hug whenever you saw him! Warm and so deeply kind! He was an inspiration to me my whole life – love the memories of going through his home and knowing he designed it- even as a very little girl! The fam reunions- the pranks and jokes with my grandpa and uncle Steve( Steve and Robert Daniel – both passed) he was always smiling! Wish my baby Jayden cld have met him!!! Wish I cld have seen him more and I wish I told him how much he inspired and influenced my life!!! Thx uncle Merrill! <3 ya!
