Not sure what to say?

Meryl was my favorite aunt. She always had the ability to put a smile on my face. When I was growing up my family would drive up to Fortuna every summer to spend time with my aunt and uncle and my cousins. Usually kids 10 years of age don't want to leave home in the summer but I was always happy to go and looked forward to he visit and the possibility of tasting auntie Meryl's cinnamon rolls.

She enriched my life by being herself and I I'll never forget her.

To my dear cousins...

I live across from Meryl and will miss seeing her coming and going and that big beautiful smile of hers. She was such a friendly lady and so full of life. Always kind to everyone. I will miss you Meryl. God speed.

Sharon, Sandra and Sue,
Please know that you are all in my thoughts and prayers. I have so many fond memories of your Mom over the last 20 plus years. She truly was a beautiful person inside and out. She always kept me laughing with her lifelong stories. Heaven is truly blessed to have her.

Love and prayers to your entire families,
Robbie Kelly❤

Sharon, Sandra, Susan... words will never convey the sadness that overcame me when Mom called and delivered the news of Merryl's passing. Memories of my youth flooded back... the smells of the Johnston kitchen, singing, piano playing, dancing, and the beautiful smiles that radiated kindness, warmth, love, and acceptance. Anyone touched by the kind spirit of Merryl was truly blessed. Sharon, please know there is rarely a day I don't think about you and your family. I am truly sorry for your...

May God bless and comfort all of you in your loss and grief, give you strength and wisdom to go forward, and grant you joy in your many memories.

Sandra, My thoughts and prayers are with you and the entire combined family.
Memories of your mom always takes me back to "Job's Daughters". Rest in sweet peace Merryl. MIZPAH!!

Sue and family. I was so sorry to hear about your mom. She was a very sweet woman and will be truly missed by many. Prayers for your family.
