Moved to Coquitlam in 1987 and soon became active in the Eagle Ridge Hospital Auxiliary becoming a life member as well being an active member of the Glen Pine Pavilion. Myrtle loved to socialize and would often host gatherings at home. We celebrate her as a caring person with a generous spirit who had a smile for everyone, even facing illness with grace. A special thank you to Dr. G. Wong and Burquitlam Lions Care Centre for their loving care in her last months. A Celebration of her life will be held at a later date.
