Merrill "Jerry" Rev. Jerald Hayden "Jerry" Merrill died at age 80 in Salt Lake City on December 10, 2005. The son of Glenn William Merrill of Preston, Idaho and Edna Lee Hayden of Salt Lake City, he was born in Rigby, Idaho on December 30, 1924. Glenn taught mathematics and social studies and coached athletics in rural high schools in Idaho, Wyoming, and Utah. He concluded this career in Moab to enter government service, mainly in Dayton, Ohio. Edna pursued careers as a dress designer in Logan and, later, as legal secretary in Salt Lake City. Both are deceased. Following three years of service in the Air Force during the Second World War as navigator, Jerry completed chemical engineering studies at the University of Utah in 1948. He was employed by Shell Oil Company in the San Francisco bay area for three years, resigning to attend St. Patrick's Seminary, Menlo Park, California. After completing studies in 1958, he was ordained a priest in the Roman Catholic diocese of Salt Lake City at the Cathedral of the Madeleine by the Most Rev. Joseph Lennox Federal, Bishop. He served the Catholic people of Salt Lake City for the next 23 years, teaching science at Judge Memorial Catholic High School and providing pastoral care to the people of Guadalupe Mission, Our Lady of Guadalupe Church, and the Cathedral of the Madeleine. During these years, he developed friendships with students and parishioners that would last all his life and be a great source of joy. Jerry was best known as an organizer of projects. Three programs that he started in the '60s survive him: Guadalupe Schools, now a pre-school through 3rd grade program for children with language and learning deficits, and an evening tutoring program for adults learning English as a second language; Utah Nonprofit Housing Corporation, a sponsor and developer of affordable multi-family housing, which, after 38 years, offers nearly 16,000 rental units to low income families and elderly and disabled people; Catholic Community Credit Union, continuing many years of credit service and counseling. One of the several projects which has not continued is the Guadalupe Center and its popular La Morena Cafe. This community center provided gathering space for Hispanic social action and the cafe offered jobs for employees and funds for projects. In 1982, Jerry resigned from his ministry in the Catholic Church. He never stated publicly his reasons for this decision. Later that year he and Carole Migden Carlisle were married by the Rt. Rev. Wesley Frensdorff, Episcopal Bishop of Nevada. His marriage to Carole and the birth of their son Isaac Marcos "Marc", born the next year, were to bring great happiness to Jerry's life. After efforts to develop an insurance and securities sales business, Jerry was invited by the Rt. Rev. Otis Charles, then Bishop of Utah, who had received him into the Episcopal Church several years earlier, to consider serving as a priest in the Episcopal Church. After time for decision and preparation, Jerry was received as a priest in 1987 at the Cathedral Church of Saint Mark by Bishop Charles. Beginning his ministry to homeless men and women in Salt Lake City, Jerry and a small staff developed The Inn, a day center for the homeless where food, clothing, emergency housing, and information on jobs and housing were provided. These efforts, after a couple of years, grew into the Lotus Project, an employment and job training program. A word about the inner dynamic of this man: He came to realize something of God's immense love for him, as for each human being. Like the mystical bride of "The Song of Songs," Jerry lived the adventure of seeking God in moments of light, when he seemed near, and in life's darkness, when he seemed to have gone away, until that day when they would find each other forever, Jerry is survived by his wife Carole and their son Marc. He is also survived by a younger brother, Dix Glenn Merrill of Centerville and by Carole's elder son, Craig William Carlisle of St. Augustine, FL.

He was inducted into the Army in July of 1941 and was in Camp Wallace, Texas when Pearl Harbor was bombed. He was promoted to sergeant and later lieutenant and served in England and France.
