Remembrance For Merrian Lynn Carver A service for our beloved daughter, Merrian will be held on March 13th at 2:00PM at the Paradise Valley United Methodist Church located at 4455 East Lincoln Drive, Paradise Valley AZ 85254. She was last seen on August 28th on the Mercury Cruise Ship off the Alaskan Coast. Merrian, age 40, is a Graduate of the Darien, Connecticut High School and Simmons College in Boston, Massachusetts. The Love of her life is her daughter, Rachel, who is age 14. For the past several years Merrian has resided in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Merrian's family also includes her parents, Kendall and Carol Carver of Phoenix, Arizona along with three sisters, Kendra, Lee and Christine. We have great sadness in our hearts because we are not seeing or talking to our lovely Merrian. We know God surrounds and is part of her always.

Ken, Carol, and Girls,

I am saddened and puzzled by Merrian's disappearance and my prayers are with you. Mother & I will attend the memorial service. Hopefully you will someday know what happened, but believe that she is in God's hands.
