Mervyn was a maverick. He believed in people and helped them realise their creative dreams. Always a lover of colour and landscape Merv extended his sensibilities far and wide to people in far flung areas of the state. Memories of Mervyn's generosity will live on for a long long time through his students. I always quote him for helping me 'see' and with en plein air painting, Rest in Peace.

What a beautiful service for Pa, highlighting many wonderful memories throughout his life. Thank you for putting on the live stream Verey Funerals so his family from WA were able to join in and say goodbye :) The Blackburn
