Dear Janna: I am so sorry to hear of Merrill´s passing. I am certain the Lord will hold him close and is comforting you during these trying times. Please receive my heartfelt condolences and those of the Gómez family. I hope to travel soon to Dallas and remember with you all the love and times we spent together. Walter A. Gómez

Dear Janna,
We are having a wonderful time with our son's family in Wisconsin, and of course getting to know Elizabeth. Though I would have liked to have been with you today, at least I could participate in and hear the service. My appreciation of Merrill grew as I listened to the others. May God grant you the comfort of Christ's peace and presence in the days ahead. We'll see you in July.
Peace,
Norm and Candy

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. I went to high school with Merrill and will not be able to attend the service, but wanted you and the family to know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.

Janna:Gary Fender's words express eloquently the loss we have suffered.Thank you for allowing Merrill to share with us his time.It meant so much to me personally in my time of need.

Janna,
I was so sorry to hear of Merrill's passing. He was always so kind to me. Eventhough I don't see you guys that often, I always considered you two good friends. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.
Sincerely,
Joan Wynne

Janna,Rick called last night to tell us.When someone like Merrill dies I feel like I have lost a Brother.Those of us who were in the business from 1960 through the 90's were like a Bandof Brothers in the best sense.Merrill was a Gentleman Trader, a man of his word and a Fun guy to know.Rose and I will remember you and Merrill in our prayers.

Janna,

Gloria and I are in Colorado this week but our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. We will miss our beloved friend.

May God Bless You,

Edward (Ed) & Gloria Snyder

Janna – I’m so sorry for your loss. I so enjoyed working with Merrill in our days at Weber, Hall. He was always a fun and special person. My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

Janna:
I do not have the words to express our sorrow of Merrill's passing. He was a true friend of mine for over 40 years. I will miss him as you terrible. I cannot tell you how many times we had meetings together that really bonded us to each other. He was a real gentelman.
I am so sorry I and Maryellen will not be at the service as we are at St. Johns, V.I. and will not be returning until next week.
God Bless You.
