My name is Robert Olliff. You do not know me. I went to Athens this past weekend to the Georgia/Tennessee football game. While I was walking the campus I started thinking about a roommate that I had as a freshman and sophomore. That roommate was Merv. When I returned home I googled his name and was very saddened to see his obituary. He and I were so different but we became very close friends. I truly regret not staying in touch. I have very few friends in my life that were as...

Maureen,

I was searching through facebook for old boyfriends and typed in Merv's name and unfortunately came across this. I was dating Merv when he opened up his business, living in Raritan. He had a beautiful dog named Sir whom he loved more then life itself. I shared many experiences with Merv over the four years we spent together. I could still treat a house for termites if I had to!

Maureen, my heart breaks for you. Losing Merv is just too devastating. Please tell me when you need extra company. Merv is irreplaceable but let me keep you company. Much love, Beth

I am so sorry for your lose. I remember as a small child both Merv & Bert and how wonderful they had been. I will keep you in our prayers and always in our heart.

Moe,
We cannot express the sorrow we feel for your loss. Merv was a great uncle and a close friend. As a devout music lover there is a song that is fitting, since we always gathered as a family during every holiday season to share time and stories together:
"To everything there is a season,and a time for every purpose under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to reap" Many fond memories.
We will forever miss him.
Love,
Brigid and...
