Condolences

My thoughts are with the Reeves family. Merv. will be missed by so many, as he liked people. I always enjoyed his remarks when I chatted with Mary, and am so sorry that I couldn't see them both on my planned holiday this summer. Love to all, Lillie

Mary and family, Mom and Dad (Wayne and Sue) were just asking me last week if I had seen Merv and Mary lately and I replied that I have not, so needless to say I was sorry to hear of Merv's passing and having to pass that news on to them. I have many fun memories of being on the farm and hanging out with the girls and I know that you all have many memories of good times with Merv too which will keep him alive (and dancing!) in your hearts. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Hugs to all. Marie
