Advice from a Centenarian
BORN APRIL 26, 1923
I met Merf serendipitously at Cherry Hill during the last weekend of April. He shared that he had just turned 100. What a milestone!
As a photographer, I’m always eager to capture humans who have stories & experiences worth sharing.
Thankfully, I had my camera in the car and Merf was more than willing to have a portrait photograph taken. Wishing you all the best in your 100th year, Merf. Thank you for your wisdom & kindness! — Katy Maclachlan, The Lunenburg Barnacle
Merf’s Advice — What’s one piece of advice you could share after living for 100 years? — “Live with good cooks!”
What’s your best birthday memory? — ”This 100th birthday has been wonderful – a classical piano concert and a week of family time in NS!”
Merf celebrated his birthday on Mosher Road with more than a dozen close family members.
