Mervyle was born on March 29, 1919 in Rockwell, IA to Henry and Margaret Arndt. She was the middle child of 11 children and grew up on the family farm. Mervyle attended a one room country school up until the 8th grade. She resided in Rockwell until 1940 when her parents moved to Mason City, where she has lived the remainder of her life. On November 11, 1950 she was united in marriage to Merle Carey in Rockwell. Mervyle worked for several years at Decker’s (now known as Armour) and became a homemaker after their daughter Kathy was born.
In her younger years she liked camping with her husband and also going on long walks. Mervyle and Merle would travel together to Oregon and California.

Mervyle will be remembered by her family as a loving and hardworking person. She was a tough lady; very resilient and lived her life devoting herself to the care of others.
