Dr. Anthony Dennis Merklinger

Dennis enthusiastically was one of my best men at my wedding in 1962 right after graduation and I tried to follow him or at least his career sinc

One of the really good guys who lived his life well. He will be missed.

Merk was a great athlete and more importantly a wonderful BR. His life story is extraordinary. May he rest in peace. BR George Collins
