We are sad to announce that on December 12, 2024, at the age of 97, Charles Merzian of Fairview Heights, Illinois passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Charles Merzian to pay them a last tribute.
As we bid Charles farewell, let us not mourn the absence of his physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of his spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Charles is not truly gone, but merely transformed, his energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
