Arthur Wilson Mercer
It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Arthur Wilson Mercer, who departed this world peacefully on Thursday, March 19th, 2026, at the age of 83. Arthur was born on Saturday, February 20th, 1943, in the quaint town of Arnold's Cove. He spent his later years residing in the vibrant city of Edmonton, Alberta, where he touched the lives of many with his kindness and compassion.
Arthur proudly served his country through a dedicated career in the Canadian Military, embodying values of honor and commitment that resonated throughout his life. His service to his nation was a testament to his character, and he carried this sense of duty into all aspects of his life.
Preceded in death by his beloved parents, Thomas Walter Mercer and Ethel Maude Mercer, and his cherished wife, Ramona Gloria Mercer, Arthur leaves behind a legacy of love and resilience. Together, they nurtured a family grounded in love, respect, and tradition.
Arthur's absence leaves a void in the hearts of those who knew him, yet his memory will remain a shining beacon of warmth and wisdom for all who were privileged to know him. Friends, family, and acquaintances alike will fondly remember his generous spirit and unwavering strength.
In honoring Arthur's wishes, arrangements have been made by Trinity Funeral Home. While he has left this earthly realm, Arthur's memory will remain ingrained in the hearts of those who loved him.
As we bid farewell to Arthur Wilson Mercer, let us celebrate a life filled with love, purpose, and admirable service. May your journey be gentle and your spirit soar free, dear Arthur.
Arthur's family extends their gratitude to all for their expressions of love and support during this difficult time. May his soul rest in eternal peace.

My sincerest condolences to Vince and family. Art was the type of person that one would instantly think…wow he’s a really good guy. I enjoyed being around him and will always remember his humour and his smile. Rest easy now soldier.
Mis más profundas condolencias, ruego a Dios les de mucha paz
No fue necesario el comunicarnos, el idioma nos lo impedía, lo que sí se es que cada vez que nos reencontrábamos en diferentes reuniones familiares nos saludábamos efusivamente y eso no se olvida, siempre atento en todo y con todos los que estábamos a tú alrededor, gracias por esos momentos.
Un fuerte abrazo hasta donde te encuentres…
I had the honor of spending time with Arthur several times, and we always enjoyed our get-togethers. Our friendship was based on mutual respect. Arthur was a wonderful person, respectful and friendly to his friends. He was fascinated by how immigrants contributed to this great nation that opened its doors to so many of us. Arthur, you will always be in our hearts.
My condolences to Vince and family. Art, you were always so kind and gentle with everyone around, you will always be remembered with great affection.
So sorry for your loss. Art was a special friend. I have known Art from our high school days. He was a caring person and loved his family and friends both in Edmonton and in Nova Scotia. I will always remember your friendship.
Mi más sentidas condolencias to Vince,Constanza and Lina, mis pensamientos y oraciones están con Uds. Que Dios lo tenga en su gloria 🙏🤍
