Myrna was such a caring person, with a wonderful smile and loving hug. She always came to church with a delicious dish to share. Blessing to her family.

When we began dancing with the Pi-R’s, Myrna and Bert were among those we madeJoyce and I feel most welcome. Talking with her was always a pleasure. She was both fun and funny and did not mind telling tales about her impetuous youth. I recall, in particular, one abput her “flying” over a railroad crossing in a car she was apparently piloting. It is easy to see how a policeman would be captivated. For me, it is all good memories. I am sure Bert, Lester and Julie miss her very much, but they have so many more memoriesthan Ito sustain them. We are thinking of everyone who loved she loved and who loved her.
