Dale A. Merrick

Ed and Doris, We just heard this weekend (3/26) from Patty (next door in Otis) about your son. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers every day.

Mr.and Mrs. Merrick you have my deepest condolences for the entire family. I remember going through grade school and graduating from high school together. We played ball and grew up in the neighborhood. I will miss Dale much. I am so very sorry for your loss.

My deepest sympathy for the Merrick family. Growing up a few houses down from Dale, and having younger brothers who were friends with him, I got to see Dale a lot during his youth. The one thing that struck me most was how polite and respectful he was. It saddened me to hear of his passing.

When the curtains of night are pinned back by the stars
And the beautiful moon sweeps the sky
Dewdrops from Heaven are kissing the rose
It's then that my memory flies
Well, upon the wings of a beautiful dove
I'll hasten this message of cheer
And I'll bring you a kiss of affection and say
I'll remember you love, in my prayers
Now the angels of Heaven are guarding the good
As God has ordained them to do
In answer to prayers that I offer to...

Dale,
sure will miss you.we had great times on the rivers, camping, biking and "T"ville. you are a great friend to keep in my thoughts. my condolences to the family.

To the Merrick family
You have my heart-felt sympathy for the loss of Dale. He will be deeply missed by those who got to know him.
May you find peace with time.

In growing up,you were participating in many activities with several of my own sons. You were also a member of Mrs. Parzychs cub scout den and was involved in some of the trips and the meetings we had at Talmadge School. All pleasant memories that time and distance cannot erase. Precious moments never forgoten.

Dale-ball you will be deeply missed - especially during Monday night football at the RANCH - what memories. Our condolences.
Kolby.
