Christopher Merritt Obituary
"Cowboy Up"! Chris' motto for his life.
He fought cancer 3 times through his life. First being when he was 9 years old, the next being at the age of 40, and now this last battle, which ended up beating him. He fought hard for 4 1/2 years and never, not once, did he think that he couldn't beat this cancer too. If his mental strength and determination was a cure for cancer, he would have crushed it!
He loved hunting, fishing, and 4-wheeling and most of all, camping with Terry, Shiloh, and Whiskey. If there were truly 2 people that were soul mates, it was the relationship that Chris and Terry shared!
