Dad & Daughter

| Sycamore Park, Tennessee, 1981: Father, daughter, and niece Marya on Marya's first birthday. |
Motivational quote which Mr. Richard E. Merchant embodied in word & deed:
"To Laugh Often and Much; To Win the Respect of Intelligent People and the Affection of Children; To Earn the Appreciation of Honest Critics and Endure the Betrayal of False Friends; To Appreciate Beauty, to Find the Best in Others; To Leave the World a Bit Better, Whether by a Healthy Child, a Garden Patch, or a Redeemed Social Condition; To Know Even One Life has Breathed Easier Because You Lived, This to To Have Succeeded"
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
