Dear Anderson and Hanson families,
I was so saddened to hear of Merrilee's passing. She messaged me a month ago, and I was so thankful to hear from her and to be able to daily lift her up in prayer. She will always be remembered as such a sweet friend to me! I fondly remember hanging out and rooming together at North Park and being in each other's weddings. I send my deepest sympathy and will be praying for you. May you find comfort in knowing she is with Jesus.

I was so sorry to hear the news of Merrilee, I have fond memories of visiting with her at baseball games. She loved her family and had wonderful friends, she always spoke highly of them. She loved her church. She was a good listener . She was always smiling . She always appreciated the cooks at lake view because she always wrote a wonderful thank you note for making her kids lunches. Just a wonderful caring person . She will be missed. Sending Love and Hugs !

We want to extend to each of you our sympathy in Merrilee's passing; right now, it
seems so very difficult to understand the 'why' of her untimely death....but, God is
in control of each and every moment of our lives - and, we have to trust in "His"
timing - "He" loves each of us and we know that Merrilee is now in the presence of
her precious Savior and Lord. May you feel God's arms of love around you at this time....we will remember you in prayer! Merrilee visited with us at P.K.s on one of
our visits back to MN - she was such a very 'dear' person and will surely be missed!
