James R. Mertz

Judy,We are so sorry to hear about Jim. Tom and I have been reminising about our hockey days at W. Catholic. The dances and sub making. You and Jim were a big part of that. Jim always sold the most because he took them to Steelcase and sold them for lunch. So sorry that we could not be there for you but Jeff stood in for us. I am so happy that Jim was able to have some time with his grandchildren. I know when we met you at D&W you sounded so happy. We never know what's going to happen. ...

Judy and family we are sorry to hear about your loss. We will miss Jim and his two dogs riding around on his red golf cart. We will all miss him.

Jim and I and the dogs always talked on the docks or walkway. So sorry to hear that he is gone on to a better place. I sure will miss him though. If I can be of any help up north, please let me know. Kurt Rodibaugh. I have the place in the woods on 16th next to John Irwin who stores the trailers and I am on dock 21. God Bless you and Jim.

Judy and family,
I am so very sorry to hear about Jim's passing. I have such fond memories of the Mertz family reunions swimming in the lake with Jim and the relatives. He was such a good sport! I remember one summer he let me dive into the lake from his shoulders when I was about 10 years old. I will always remember him smiling, being a great guy that everyone loved so much. God Bless you all....
