In keeping with Mervyn’s wishes cremation has taken place. A Celebration of Life will be held at a later date. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Lung Association or Alzheimer’s Society would be sincerely appreciated. Arrangements entrusted to Donald V. Brown Funeral Home, 905-662-2948.
In life we loved you dearly,
In death, we do the same.
It broke our hearts to lose you.
You did not go alone.
For part of us went with you,
The day God called you home.
You left us beautiful memories,
Your love is still our guide.
And although we cannot see you,
You are always at our side.
Our family chain is broken,
And nothing seems the same,
But as God calls us one by one,
The chain will link again.
You taught us all to enjoy life
You taught us all to pray,
We will never forget you.
