Langille, Merrill Harris

Bridgewater, NS November 08, 1932 - April 27, 2025

LANGILLE, Merrill Harris, 92, of Bridgewater, formerly of Blockhouse, passed away on April 27, 2025. Born November 8, 1932, he was the only son of the late Harris and Effie (Zinck) Langille.

Born in Blockhouse, Merrill and his wife of 62 years, Barbara, made their home and raised their family in the heart of Blockhouse, until moving to Bridgewater in 2022. Together they built a thriving excavation business which, in later years, he proudly worked with his son, Graham, until he retired at age 85. Merrill and Barbara also enjoyed their winters in Florida and summers at their camp on Lake Mush-a-Mush, making many wonderful memories there with friends and family.

Merrill is survived by his wife, Barbara (nee Rhodenizer); daughter, Vicky (Tom) Grace, Bridgewater and son, Graham (Edith) Langille; grandchildren, Alex (Morgan) and Amy, Corbin (Shaylee) and Savannah; great-grandchildren, Reign and Anna.

Besides his parents, Merrill was predeceased by his sisters Valeria, Claudia, Natalie, and Goldie.

A private service will be announced at a later date.

In lieu of flowers, donations in Merrill’s memory may be made to the Health Services Foundation of the South Shore or to your charity of choice.
