Merle, I´ve looked for you for years and never thought to look for an obit. You have always been such a kind gentle soul and so much fun to be around. We first met on the cruise and you and I had to deal with the old man. We had lots of laughs from him!! Someday we will laugh again my friend, love,

11-19-2021 It has been a year since your passing and I have just found out that you were gone. I started trying to reach you when I did not get the Happy Birthday song that you have sung to me for 20 years. My heart is broken because I did not get to say Goodbye. We may not be cousins by blood but were family by heart. You were the light to everyone that knew you. I know you are looking down on all of us. Goodbye, my sweet cousin.

Our hearts are broken as Merle really was almost like a son to Virginia. We looked forward to spending more time together as he was talking about coming for a visit soon. She will miss their get-togethers and phone conversations where they would reminisce and laugh. He helped support me also through my dads funeral and we encouraged each other in the care of our moms. He is all over our home in the beautiful hand-made gifts he gave to us and he will always be in our hearts. Until we meet again. Love you cousin

May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. This is a
sad loss for family and Merle's many friends. Merle was a wonderful
co-worker at the Cincinnati airport, always making it a better day.
