Uncle Merle

Yesterday my Uncle Merle passed away due to heart failure. His health hasn't been the greatest the last few years with a blood disease that resembles luekemia. My last memories of Uncle Merle are of laughter and happiness spent celebrating my Uncle Robert's 79th birthday back in October. Everyone had such a wonderful time visiting and catching up.
