Obituary: Dorothy a resident of Lancaster for many years, passed away last in the Palmdale Regional Hospital after a brief illness. She was preceded in death by her husband, MSgt. Donald Merritt; her only brother, Talmadge Carroll, and her parents. She was the daughter of Eula Mae Orsburn of Texas and Bartholomew Franklin Carroll of Arkansas. She is survived by her only daughter, Pamela (Glen) Egbert of Palmdale; her only son, Michael Merritt of Lancaster; three grandchildren, Natalie, Jordan and Ethan; nine great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews. A devout Christian, Dorothy was active in church and ministry since her early teens. She was a member of the Baptist Church for many years, and later of the Desert Vineyard. In recent years she was a devoted supporter of the Billy Graham Ministry. A highlight of her ministry was a member of an expedition which smuggled Bibles into Communist China. She survived an attack of Myasthenia Gravis in her early 40's, and was the first adult patient to receive plasmaphoresis at the research center in San Francisco. She liked to refer to herself as the guinea pig #34. As a result of her experience she became a leader in local support groups, and was a frequent speaker at rallies and therapy meetings. Dorothy loved to write, and was active in local writer's clubs for many years. She recently published her memoirs, highlighting the migration of her family from Missouri to California in the Great Depression. She was also an accomplished painter, and many of her pictures were featured and sold at local galleries and auctions. Dorothy suffered a number of health disasters in recent years, but she never lost her faith or determination. She valued her independence, and insisted on continuing her life at her home of some fifty years in Lancaster. When the end came, she met it with the relief and joy, passing peacefully in her sleep. |

Obituary: - 13, 2011 Charles (Chuck) Ray Merritt, born 16, 1928 to Opal and Olan Merritt in Enid, Oklahoma. The family moved to San Diego where he graduated high school and joined the United States Navy at 17. He was active in WWII then called back to duty in the Korean War. Chuck returned home safe and sound in 1946 only to meet the love of his life Dorthy Collins in Long Beach, CA. There they were married and the ravishing and romantic adventure would take its course for the next 63 years. Chuck began his career as a roughneck in 1949 on Signal Hill, the LBOD & Terminal Islands. In 1953 he headed to the Huntington Beach Boom where he started his directional drilling engineering career. He is a true icon and legend in the oil industry. He became a Mason in 1956 and member of the Long Beach Petroleum Club. Then in 1974 he moved his wife and three children to Bakersfield. He fervently enjoyed traveling with his wife and socializing. Golf, fishing, hunting, cards and RVing were among the few of Chucks choices, however, albacore fishing was his passion. Both fun and lazy days were spent on the Colorado River through a decade as well. Chuck was a remarkable man who loved and provided for his family unconditionally. He was a man of integrity, character and perseverance. Undoubtedly Chuck was the rock and backbone of the Merritt family. He was kind, generous and quick-witted. He had a hilarious sense of humor and was always ready to contradict the discouraged with encouragement or a joke. Chuck had many friends and acquaintances because he truly was good time Charley. Chuck fought a courageous battle with cancer the last two years of his life. Being the sole child of Opal and Olan, Chuck leaves behind a huge legacy of family that includes his loving wife, Dorthy; son, Mike and daughter-in-law Karla; daughter, Melanie Coleman; son, David and daughter-in-law, Debbie; 13 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren, and 1 great great grandson. The memories, adventures and love Chuck has shared with us all is embedded deep in our hearts and will forever be remembered. We will miss him tremendously, but never forget him. Goodbye for now, but not forever. The family gives special thanks to CBCC and Optimal Hospice for the outstanding care and compassion given to Chuck our loving husband, father, grandfather, and friend through this difficult time. Also a big thank you to our close friends and neighbors for the thoughtful flowers, food and support. A Chapel service will be held on , 20th, 11:00 a.m., at Hillcrest Mortuary. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in his name to CBCC, 6501 Truxtun Ave. |
