Merle London
With celebration of a life well lived, we announce
the passing of Merle Esther London (Fillmore), of Hampton,
NB, which occurred on Monday, August 7, 2017 at the Saint
John Regional Hospital. Born in Corn Hill, NB, she was a
daughter of the late Calvin Fillmore and S. Marie (Munroe)
Middleton.
After graduating from school, Merle worked in the banking
industry working in Montreal, Fredericton and Saint John. Merle loved
playing tennis since a very young age, winning various awards and
trophies throughout her life. She was also involved with the St.
Paul’s Anglican Church Choir in which she thoroughly enjoyed
singing for events and church services. Teaching herself how to sew
and knit, Merle became a very talented seamstress. She would knit all
types of sweaters and other beautiful items and was known for her
excellent work and dedication. Above all her interests and hobbies,
Merle loved her family and friends the most, always lighting up the
room with her bright smile. No matter what Merle faced throughout her
life, she kept a positive outlook and never once let herself become
discouraged.
Merle is survived by her loving husband George London; loving
daughter Stacey London of Hampton, NB; sisters: June Bull of
Nauwigewauk, NB, Sharon Fillmore (Corneil Theriault) of Saint John,
NB, and Rosalie (Stan) Danells of Hampton, NB; step sister Betty
Malloy of Saint John, NB; sisters-in-law: Josephine “Jo”
(Carl) Starkey of Coal Creek, NB, and Judith (David) Kaine of
Bayswater, NB; as well as several nieces and nephews.
Arrangements have been entrusted to Reid’s Funeral
Home (506-832-5541), 1063 Main Street, Hampton, NB and will be held
privately. A private family interment will take place at the St.
Paul’s Anglican Cemetery, Hampton, NB, at a later
date.
The family would like to extend a special thank you to all
the staff from 5CN at the Saint John Regional Hospital where Merle
stayed. Your care and compassion towards Merle and her family will
never be forgotten.
