Carl Armstrong of Merlin passed away at the Chatham-Kent Health Alliance on January 23, 2022. He was the last surviving member of his family, having been predeceased by his parents John & Ada (Benge) Armstrong and his sisters Jean & Don Cates and Eileen & Harold Berry.
Carl and his late wife Anne (2020) enjoyed a life that spanned over 60 years. They farmed together and enjoyed a social life that included bowling in Tilbury and Blenheim and horseshoes. They were the proud parents of Brad & Patti and Brenda. They were blessed with a granddaughter Jessica & Brent Wilbur and three great-grandchildren Lucas, Zachary and Dylan. Uncle Carl will be remembered with great fondness by Scott Berry, Kirk & Deb Berry and Brent & Hedi Berry.
Carl loved the outdoors. After the farming was done, he enjoyed hunting with Brad and other friends. He had a sweet tooth and could never pass by the peanut butter cookies at the farmers market without picking up a package or two.
Carl’s family will remember him privately at this time and in the summertime hold a graveside service for both he and his sister Jean in Merlin Cemetery. Blenheim Community Funeral Home entrusted with funeral arrangements. Friends wishing to remember him with a memorial donation are asked to consider the Ronald McDonald House.
