Memorials to Merry may be made to a charity below or one of your choice.
The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration
FTD is the most common form of dementia for people under age 60, and is the disease that took Merry from us far too early. Today, there is no cure for FTD, and no treatments available to slow or stop the progression of the disease. AFTD’s mission is to improve the quality of life of people affected by FTD and drive research to a cure.

The Humane Society
Merry loved dogs, especially her baby Max. The Humane Society of the United States fights to end suffering for all animals. Their rescue and direct care work responds to today’s cruelties, while their education, legislative, and policy work seeks to prevent tomorrow’s.
