I always enjoyed Merv's company. He was a straight shooter who never left you wondering what he thought of something.
Rest easy old neighbour you no longer have to struggle for a breath of air.
So very glad I got to see you briefly on Monday.

I will miss our Monday nights at the Waverley Bowling Club where we shared a good yarn and a few beers. I will also miss our other times we would meet up. At least now Merv is at peace and not struggling for breath. I will always remember Merv.

A meeting with Mervyn was a pleasure. You could spend a bit of time fixing the problems in the world. We may never catch up in a while but it was just like it was yesterday. Time to rest

Merv was a great neighbour and a huge support for me when I moved next door in 2014 with my husband Tony. His garden was one of his delights and many a vegetable made it to my door.. my condolences to the family, he was a good man.
