Not sure what to say?

Merida was a friend in New Mexico when I moved there from NYC in the early 1970s. She became a friend and a great comfort to me. The culture shock coming from a big crowded city to the wide open sky was mitigated by her presence. The whole family felt familiar and their lifestyle was like a breath of fresh air. My deepest condolences to all who were touched by her.

I am very saddened by this loss to our world. Merida was a beautiful soul who always made me feel welcomed and loved, a true member of the Wexler family. When my own mother passed away 21 years ago Merida was very kind, considerate and thoughtfully supportive of me in my grieving. I'll always remember and be grateful for the wonderful ceremony she conjured up to celebrate the birth of my daughter Gemma, her first grandchild. My thoughts and prayers for peace and comfort go out to you Joe,...

Merida was a wonderful soul. Over the years since meeting her in the early 80's I was fortunate enough to have many wonderful conversations with her. In so many ways she was my 2nd mother and someone whose opinion I valued. She will be missed. I know that she leaves a hole with her family.

My very deepest condolences to you all. Merida was a wonderful light in this world, and she surely will continue to shine through you all.

My condolences to the Wexler family. I discovered a lot of new wonderful things about Merida after reading her obituary. She was a courageous woman who loved her art.

So very sorry to hear of Merida's passing. We send our love and condolences. Sincerely...Ross Coates and family
