Wilson Merrifield (Ruth Marshall) passed 5/4/2022 in the morning
around 2am peacefully in her sleep with her children nearby. After
almost 6 months in hospice care, and over the last month especially, her
children sent her out with lots of love, songs and prayers. They sang
her into bliss and peace using all the Order Song Books. She lived a
full life of adventure, grace and love. She could not speak well during
the last several weeks but the one thing she could say was Love… I love
you… love you… </span></div><div style="margin:0px;font-stretch:normal;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Times;min-height:14px;" class="ydp66adb51yiv7270959360"><span class="ydp66adb51yiv7270959360"></span><br class="ydp66adb51yiv7270959360"></div><div style="margin:0px;font-stretch:normal;font-size:12px;line-height:normal;font-family:Times;" class="ydp66adb51yiv7270959360" dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><span class="ydp66adb51yiv7270959360">There
