Barry & Kim,
My condolences. It was a pleasure having Myrna in my life. She always had a smart word for me and I always gave her a compliment. I will miss that mischievous smile in her eyes and her melodious laughter. Remember the great and happy times and she will always be a flower in your garden

My prayers are with you all during this time. Myrna was a very special person in my life. She was my boss at Student Health all throughout college, gave me my very first job out of college, and she attended my wedding. She will be very missed. I will cherish my memories of her.

Dear Kim and Barry
There is almost nothing better in this world than the feeling of showing up for our own lives. When we can do this, we become people that are more alive and who have the ability to make things happen in our lives and the lives of the people around us. We walk through the world with the knowledge that we have a lot to offer and the desire to share it. Myrna did this everyday, because she loved life, I was lucky to have met her and I can look around my home and see a little piece of her because of her kindness. She will be sadly missed.
