Rev. Irvin M. Verrill, age 86, of Dowling Park, FL fell asleep in the Lord on November 2, 2019 at Advent Christian Village, Dowling Park, FL. Irvin was born January 12, 1933 in Windham, ME to Fred and Ethel Verrill. He is predeceased by his parents, sister Leona Riley and brothers Linden and Clayton, all of Windham, ME. He is survived by his wife Eleonor of 65 years, his three daughters Coleen Williams (Jim), Nadeen Baker (Steve) and Darleen Hinrichs (Wayne), seven grandchildren, ten great grandchildren, his sister Pearl Grant and several nieces and nephews.

He received his pastoral education at New England School of Theology in Brookline, MA. Irvin was a dedicated minister of the gospel, serving in eight Advent Christian churches across New England for more than 59 years. During his ministry, he also served in leadership on several state and regional conference boards and as representative to the Advent Christian General Conference. He trained several pastoral interns. His life of service was an expression of his love for the Lord, his family and the people he served.

Due to his New England heritage, Irvin was an avid Red Sox and Patriots fan. He enjoyed gardening, golf, camping, woodworking, and baking chocolate-chocolate chip cookies for his family. What gave him the most joy was his relationship with the Lord and his family.

A memorial service will be held November 9, 2019 at 11:00 am at the Village Church in Dowling Park, FL. Interment will be in Windham, ME at a future date.

Donations in his memory may be made to Advent Christian Village or The Village Church, PO Box 4305, Dowling Park, FL 32064 or Advent Christian Retirement Communities, 143 Rogers Rd. Kittery, ME 03904.
