Dear Mick, Bob, John, Becky and Mike: Was glad to be with you for your father's viewing and funeral and at the cemetery and luncheon. I have many special memories of your parents and you children, especially of your mother who is my younger sister. We grew up together and shared so many wonderful times. I hope that you can all keep in touch with each other, especially Becky and Mike who were so close to your parents in their final days. Please let me know what goes on with you also. I love...

To our Bennion cousins,
We are so sorry to hear about Mervyn . We will always remember the fun family gatherings we've had over the years. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
John and Mary Ellen (Davis) Naylor and children, (LuLu's daughter and family)

My thoughts and love go to you and your family, Becky. We have missed you this week at school. I will not be able to attend the viewing or the funeral on Saturday but you wish you well. Know that I love and appreciate you and your support. I respect and cherish our friendship. Take care my dear.

Merv and I were fellow Church employees and good friends for many years. I didn't know we shared a fondness for classical music, but I loved his sense of humor that lightened every one of the (seemingly) innumerable meetings we attended together. He's a great man and a great friend.

May the knowledge that he "IS" not "was" lighten the sense of loss that all who know him feel at his promotion to a better place.

Merv will always be remembered for his keen mind, quick whit and easy laugh. It has been a pleasure being his friend and neighbor over the last twenty-seven years. We are happy he is now reunited with his father from whom he'd been separated for so many years. We imagine his meeting Larrie is a joy beyond description. Know that Merv has been missed during his long confinement and we will always think of him with fondness.

For my Dad and Mom, With heartfelt sympathy and great love for you all! (Randy)

Part of Our Hearts Forever

Could we ever forget your sparkling eyes
or the way you brightened each day,
or your smile which is etched in our memories,
so you're never far away?
Could we ever forget those priceless moments?
The answer, of course, is never.
For you were part of our lives for a brief time,
but you'll be part of our hearts forever.

In Loving Memory of
MERVYN S. BENNION JR.
