Merlyn D. Helm

I am saddened to learn of Merle's passing. Merle and I were in the Army together, in basic training at Ft. Carson, CO, and later deployed to Fort Lewis, Washington. Merle and I were great friends. I lost track of each other over the years due to our move from Wisner, to first Omaha, then to Colorado in February 1971. We now live in Broomfield, Colorado. My age is now 86.

Sincere condolences, remembering old times playing ball.

Merlyn and I were good friends beginning in elementary school. We had many great times playing baseball and basketball in high school and pool at the barber shop. Lots of joking around.

Sincere condolences, remembering old times playing ball.

My sincere sympathies to Merle's family. I always enjoyed talking with him. He always talked so highly of his family. He took great interest in what you had to say and was so knowledgeable about so many things! I also enjoyed teasing him about his Hawkeyes since I am a Cyclone fan. RIP

My sympathy to Merlyn Helm's family. He is in my prayers and I will be thinking of you Friday at 11 AM. I have known the Helm family for many years going back to the Crystal Lake/Woden days. Blessings!
