Sorry for your loss we have the same name
left a message on June 10, 2015:
When our loved ones die, our lives are never quite the same and yet, with the strength from our heavenly father we find the ability to keep going. Phillipians4:13 How wonderful to know that soon all sickness, pain and death will be gone forever. Never will we see those that we love die again! Because of the loving sacrifice of our king Christ Jesus, all those who have died will have the chance to live again! John5:28-29 Jesus himself said, "I am the resurrection and the life." It's because of him that our dead loved ones will live again! Do not let your hearts be troubled! Believe in the promises of God and find true inner peace! Jehovah loves us and wants us to see our dead loved ones again! Soon, this will come true! Once again I am sorry for your loss!

Dear Mrs. Meridy and beloved Family,
I am so very sorry for your loss. It was always a privilege to be your friend and also luckily your neighbor. I always felt that you were an extension of my own family. Mr. Meridy was a wonderful, larger than life figure, full of joy and happiness. I remember him as always smiling and will smile when I think of him now. I am sorry I can't make it back for the service, but am sending love and prayers your way.
With deepest sympathy,

My heart is deeply saddened at the news of the earthly loss of the patriarch of the Meridy Family. The Father blessed me to be amongst the many beneficiaries of Mr. Meridy’s now legacy of service to the King of Kings by obedience through his acts of offering hope, charity and love. I will never forget Mr. Meridy’s kindness, generosity and care during difficult times.
My fervent prayers are with the family. May the peace of God reign in your hearts and He hold you close in mourning and celebration of your loved one’s life.

Ron loved my family and my family loved him. Everyone in my family thought that they got special treatment from him. But those of us that worked with him every day knew that everyone received that same special treatment from Ron. He brightened every room that he ever walked in to. Yesterday I posted a picture of Ron and me on Facebook, the responses were overwhelming. Former students and their parents posted comments and stories that Ron would love to read. He positively impacted thousands of lives over the years. I pray that his spirit will continue to live in each of us that loved him.

"Pops" Meridy was truly one of a kind. He and his family have welcomed and embraced me and my family as soon as we stepped into the doors of Mt. Zion Glendale like they've always known us. I always enjoyed my interactions with him and he stayed the same (warm, friendly, quick witted, and caring) even when his health didn't allow him to attend church every week. He will be missed.

I graduated in 1971, all my children went to Princeton and graduated from there. Sometimes a person is consistent in ones life, and children no matter what age, need that type of security. From everything I know that is how Ronald Meridy carried himself in the presence of children, security yet consistency. I hope that is how his life outside his job was also. Although a life is gone, the memories, the life lessons, the smile will not ever be forgotten.

I was a student at Princeton when Mr. Meridy was a security guard. Now I will admit Mr. Meridy did at times let me "get away with murder" but there were also times when he would have to remind me to get my butt to class. He was a great man, who when if you needed some advise he would offer his words of wisdom. Even after I graduated, when I would visit old teachers, I made sure I would get a chance to run into him just to catch up with him. He is a man who will be missed by many. RIP Mr. Meridy.
