In loving memory of
Merry Chipman
February 12, 1958 – April 22, 2023
Merry was a special treasure to me. What started as friendship grew into something more. In the beginning we found humor and camaraderie, enjoyment in our interactions. But then, and most astoundingly of all, we began to fall in love. We didn’t intend to, but we did. We have shared close companionship over our years together, caring for each other, sharing both the good and a few trying times. Through good health and devastating sickness we loved and supported each other. We enjoyed life together in so many ways. I miss her now every moment as I continue without her through the life that remains for me. I’m very grateful and thankful though, to have shared part of my life with such a special beautiful being. This love has brought me great comfort, satisfaction, and enjoyment, and now profound grief and bitterness with her untimely passing. But also in my sadness I’m slowly recalling the sweetest memories of our time together. Please view these pictures while you listen to some of the music that was special to us. And leave a comment if you have a memory of her that you’d like to share.
Merry was so much to so many people—a loving daughter, sister, wife, mother, stepmother, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, friend, and so much more. Watch this slideshow of pictures and videos from Merry’s life to get a small glimpse of the joy, light, and love she brought to everyone who knew her.
We love you so much, Merry.
