Holerud, Merlin D. 'Red'

Oh, my friend, Rose, I am so saddened to read of the death of your husband of almost 50 years. Please know that I am praying for you, Todd, Shellie and their families. Please remember all of the good times and memories you have of him. May God hold you in the palm of His hand and help you through the next painful months. May you greet each day with strength and dignity and know that you are loved!

Rose, Shellie, Todd and family, you are in our thoughts and prayers during this most difficult time. We loved Merlin and his big personality, and will hold the memories of him close. Love, Marlise, Jay, William, Mary Hollis, and Benjamin

My deepest sympathy to Rose and family. I will forever remember Merlin and his helpfullness - and antics - when I worked at the BP off the interstate in the Town of Dekorra, and more recently when he'd stop into the Town of Lodi office; and how he always talked so lovingly about his sweet Rose. I will miss you Merlin.
