On Monday, January 6, 2020 Mervyn McLaughlin passed away surrounded by his family at his home in Carstairs, AB at the age of 82 years. Merv lived life to the fullest. He was a loving husband, father and a very proud Grandpa. He grew up on the family farm near Semans, SK and later took over farming for 33 years. He spent hours in the shop building or repairing almost anything you could think of. This was known as a special place where family, friends and neighbours would gather with Merv to tell stories as they worked. He loved music and is best remembered for playing the piano and singing old country classics at family gatherings.
He is lovingly remembered by his loving wife, Dianne (nee Wagner) of 54 years; daughters, Amber Raedeke (Murray), and Leanne; son, Tyler (Tracey); and grandchildren, Connor, Jayda, Wyatt and Paige. Merv was predeceased by his father, William; mother, Jenny; and sister, Doris.
A Celebration of Life will be held on Saturday, January 18, 2020 at the Carstairs Half Century Club, 1139 Osler Street from 2pm to 5pm. Burial will take place in Semans, SK at a later date.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Mervyn Lawrence McLaughlin January 6th 2020..
