She passed away peacefully while surrounded by her beloved husband of 64+ years and her four children, as they held hands praying and singing God's praises. Most of Meredy's life was given to one of four areas and all of them were so important to her. Family - She loved her husband and her children with a strong and deep love. She seemed to be able to grow a bigger heart with each and every son-in-law, daughter-in-law, grandchild and great grandchild that joined the family. Nothing brought her greater joy than to be gathered with her family, supporting them in their passionate endeavors or simply sitting together and enjoying one another's company. Friends - Meredy loved her friends as if they were part of her family. She had close friends in the farm community, their California "snowbird" community and wherever she was. People were drawn to her and she welcomed everyone into her circle of friends. Someone may have met her as a stranger but always left feeling loved, heard and known when they left her company. Meredy always had a pot of coffee and a pan of bars ready for people that came to visit. Music - Meredy had a gift and passion for music, and she joyfully shared her gift with many. She began playing organ for her church while she was still in high school and continued playing for church services for over 60 years. She gave piano and organ lessons to hundreds of students and she shared her skills and her love for music with each of them. She directed multiple choirs in the church, schools and local community. She sang or played for many weddings, funerals and other special events. Meredy's intense joy was always evident when music was involved. Music was a huge part of her life. Faith - Most importantly, faith was woven into every thread of her life. Meredy's love for her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ would always shine through. She was a woman that was a servant, being happy to bless others. She was a selfless person in every part of her life. Meredy and Wally's wedding Scripture was Joshua 24:15, "As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord." This was a vow that she made, and it was never just words to her, it was a promise to God.
