I am deeply saddened by the loss of my brother in law. To say that Mervin was one in a million is an understatement. He was a character for sure, somehow we teased and joked with each other for over 45 years, without a single blow. He made the very best hamburgers in the world, worked hard at everything he did and was able to laugh even in the hardest times. His faith and family were foremost in his mind always. He deeply loved his wife Barb and was always on an adventure of some kind. From the fish pond in the back yard to RV camping it was an adventure. You will be missed my friend. You earned your eternal rest and peace.

I am so honored to have been able to take this walk with this family. Merv was a true buddy to me. I enjoyed all the puzzles and conversations we had. He gifted me his sweet dog and she will never forget him either. What a great man and family
