Raymond Mercer (15 Sep 1947 - 8 Jun 2022)

MERCER RAYMOND Died 8th June 2022, Suddenly abroad. Late of Shannon Street. Beloved husband of the late Meta, much loved father of Maureen, Linda, Marie, Trevor and Alison and a devoted grandfather and great-grandfather. Funeral Service will be held from his daughter’s home 214 Manor Street, Belfast on Thursday 23rd at 10.30am and afterwards to Roselawn Crematorium for 12 noon. Family flowers only please, donations in lieu, if desired to Kevin Bell Repatriation Trust c/o Stephen McCosh Funeral Director, 117-121 Shankill Road, Belfast, BT13 1FD. Will be sadly missed by his loving family circle. He never looked for praises, he was never one to boast, he just went on quietly working for the ones he loved the most. His dreams were seldom spoken, his wants were very few and most of the time his worries went unspoken too. He was there... A firm foundation through all our storms of life, a sturdy hand to hold on to, in times of stress and strife. A true friend we could turn to when times were good or bad, one of our greatest blessings, the man that we called Dad. He died as he lived, everyone's friend.
