Not sure what to say?

I just got the news today about Merle. I have such fond memories of times spent with her. Merle was always so kind and loving. She had me in her home many times as a child and always made me feel special even though she jokingly called me brat! I can still see her standing at that big picture window. She will always hold a special place in my heart.
My prayers thoughts and love are with you all

I'm so sorry we weren't able to attend the services. Merle was my favorite Aunt. She made everyone feel special. Being one of 10, it was amazing that Merle could remember each one of us. She was always so kind.

To the Family:
What a nice person she was. Although we only knew her for a short time, we enjoyed talking to her while she was with our mom at Golden Living. We loved her and she will be missed. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

To Merle's Family,
Merle was the greatest lady ever. She was a great customer in the cosmetic area at Wanamakers, and we all loved when she would come in and we would pamper her. I received the phone call from a friend informing me of her passing. She will truly be missed not only by us but by many. Our prayers are with you at this time.

With my deepest sympathy
