Carmeen and family, I was sorry to hear of Merle's death, and I want to extend to all of you my sympathy. He was such a good friend to my husband, Darlo.

Sorry to hear of his passing. He was an inspiration to me since he was Horse and I was Horseface. I used to visit on the farm and swim in their pond.
