Merrill made this announcement on 6 November 2011

To All My Dear and Loyal Friends,
For some time I have been pondering when I would make this statement. But after much prayer and consulting with my family, I have decided to call
it quits as to my personal career. You've probably watched with interest why I've canceled concerts or shut the Facebook pages down a few times.
The concern over being able to keep up with the pace and health issues has been on my entire families mind. My grandkids want grandpa around more and they let me know it every day. I will finish up the commitments to my brothers, but then move to another phase of my life. I have loved you all. You've supported me for so many years. I've read your letters, Facebook entries, listened to you words and even shared
your heartaches and tears at times. I've loved it all. All I can say is thanks so much. My Facebook pages and Blog will be shut down permanently. My website will remain active. I will be spending the bulk of my time working on large stadium shows and keeping active in the health industry. But more importantly, I’m going to dedicate the rest of my life to Mary. She has sacrificed a lot and it’s hers and my time to enjoy the final years ahead.
Stay happy, don't let anything get you down and above all, know your Savior.
He is coming soon. Let's get ready for his return.

I love you all!

The Bear, Merrill.
