Your Loving Wife Forever

October 15, 2025

Happy Birthday my dear husband! I went to The Temptations concert last month, I showed them pictures of you with them and they remembered you (I know you already know that). I will always remember our good times over all the years that we have known each other. Not a day pass that you don´t cross my mind. Rest easy my love.

my Big Bro,
You are truly missed. Guess what?
I finally made it to a Super Bowl party. Since you transitioned, I just realized because everything happening in the mist of Super Bowl 2013, I have just NOT wanted to go to one. You would have loved it. They were your kind of people and treated me like family.

Forever my Big Brother,

Love You,
your 2nd lil' sis

My Big bro. Some years seem easier than others, but it is always a time of inward as your transition date approaches; I will always think of you at Super Bowl time, as i just reflect on how you kept us laughing, and even though you had to do things YOUR way (lol), you brought alot of joy and laughter to those who knew you. God speed!

Your lil sis,
Gail

Your wife forever

February 6, 2024

Not a day pass without me thinking of you. Even during special events, like at Bryttnee´s wedding I was thinking how proud you would be of her, she is so beautiful but I know you are watching over her and know that. Then there was Tre´s wedding and he had pictures of you on display, in remembrance of you, how special is that? You would be proud of him also, the meteorologist, he love the lord and is the prayer leader for the youth group at his church. I´ve started the Home Care business again and it´s going well, I just wish you were still here. February is a very difficult time for me but I´ll get through it as usual. Love you always!

Good morning. . .Mr. Myron Anderson, there's not a Friday that passes by that I don't remember how you would play those "Oldies" on 90.9 - KTSU. Lately, though, the music has been sounding like you have returned to the sound booth! Thank you for the sweet memories of yesterday. Rest in Peace, Mr. Anderson.

Gail Anderson

Thank you Willie Treadmill. My brother meant so much to so many& we are so thankful for that!

Willie Treadwell

This was a special man you reached out to few and touched so many hearts. I am just now learning of his passing but I know that his music still exists with him in Heaven. Tears ran down when I was told of his passing and could not believe it. He was an institution in himself. There are so many that loved Myron and he brought so much love to his Friday Listening Back program. For his family I would like to say you raised a beautiful son and now he is serving our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thanks for sharing Myron with all of Houston.

Happy 9th Anniversary and Happy Valentine's Day

February 12, 2015

Sweetie,
We're now into our second year without you, and it hurt like it happened today; even more (I'm not in shock anymore). As I think of every detail of the days leading up to your death, I can see that God prepared you in advance, and you put things in place to try an make things a little easier for us. The things that you took care of like buying my Valentine's card a week in advance, finish decorating your man-cave, spending so much time with Bailee and many more things, that I won't mention here. I know that you are watching over us and wanting us to move on with our lives, and I will; but you will forever be in my heart and I will love you forever!

Rest in peace my love, until we meet again.

I miss you so much. It's been very emotional for me this week. They say with time it will get better; not yet.

Well, why not. A Myron Story:

Myron and I had received separate traffic tickets at one time around 1990 or so. Upon finding this out over brunch one day after his show we decided to attend traffic school together. I knew this was a bad idea as we tended to act like two 16-years olds when in each others company most of the time. But, off we went.

If you've ever been to traffic school, you know how they provide traffic scenarios and then ask the class questions.

The scenario provided was an emergency braking situation under hazardous conditions.
Myron and I were sitting at the back of the class and the instructor calls on Myron to answer this abbreviated part of the question...

"So, Mr. Anderson, given all of that, what do you think was the first thing that gave-out and failed under those conditions and made the accident even worse?".

Myron looked at me. Oh boy. I could feel it coming. All I could do was prepare myself as best I could. It was going to be a good one. With everyone in the room looking on, Myron said...

"His sphincter muscle".

I SCREAMED, and everyone else in class just went wild and to pieces. Even the instructor. A short break was needed and called immediately! That was The Classic Myron I knew.

Yeaaah buddy.

Well Myron,
As Time passes that missing part in all of our hearts aches. Beth is doing so many go things. Myron my Fridays aren't the same and I miss sending you your daily words and hearing you say hey Sis how are you doing. Miss you Bro.

April 28, 2014

Well Sweetie tomorrow will be another wedding anniversary that I've had without you. It hurts soooo much and my heart is heavy, but I know you are in heaven rejoicing. I read the book "Heaven is for Real" and it gave me comfort that you are young and in no pain. RIP until I see you again.

I'll love you always!!!!

February 14, 2014

While we approached the one year mark. God had me doing one of my brother's favorite things. Well maybe his second favorite; As i reflect on him ...my dad...& my little sister, as much as i miss all three of them, it speaks volumes that God decided to cross all three over in the same month,,,different years but only days/weeks apart; it is true that God brings us full circle; There is not a day that goes by & i don't think of something funny my brother said or did. He is a chip of the old old block because that crazy sense of humor originated from my parents. No one could tell a story like my dad& have your busting your side& no one has such quick wit like mom, even at 83 years of age. So that's how i feel about how God has crossed all three of them over in the SAME month of love. For me it makes the pain a little easier... the loss not so bitter, and, the Memories oh sooo much sweeter. Myron your are in mist of all the greatness in our family of those who have also crossed over. I can't say I will see you again, because I see you everyday in some form or fashion. Your,sis Gail

Forever.

1 year ago today at 11:12 AM. I loss the love of my life. I still praise and thank God for the time that we had together and I know that he want me to move on but it's hard. I am depending on God's Grace and Mercy to bring me through these trying times.

Today is Temptations day for me, they make me sad and happy; sad that he is not here listening with me, but happy that he is with his Savior.

Missing him so much!

Ms. Bobbie D Nickerson

February 7, 2014

Good morning, Myron Anderson. This is "Queen Bee". Thank you for playing all my song requests whenever I called. To me, "Listening Back Fridays" have not been the same. . but today, I am enjoying listening to your favorite group, The Temptations, today. God be with you, Mrs. Beth Anderson. I have much love and respect for you.

Beverly

February 6, 2014

Myron;
You are missed so much, but I know you are in good hands!!! I have been playing "The Temptations" in your honor, when I think of them, I think of how your eyes would light up and that smile of joy would come across your face. How did you work things out to be right there with your favorite group, well I know who's runnning the show and the music. Beth is hurting, but I know she understands that you are doing what you do best and that your love for her is forever!! As Ali would sing "Treat Her Like A lady" and that is exactly what Beth is, and she will forever be your lady!!!! Keep protecting her and help her to heal!!

Beth Anderson

February 6, 2014

Well Sweetie it's been a very long year with us all missing you dearly. I still feel your presence and pray that is your way of watching over us and making sure that we take care on each other. I know that you are in a much better place with your heavenly Father, your father, sister, grandparents, and some of your best buddies, not to leave out your favorite singers Ali Woodson and the other Temptations so I can imagine you all having a Holy Ghost good time everyday without any earthly worries; but that doesn't help me to miss you any less. But, I know that God has a purpose for my pain, a reason for my struggles and a reward for my faithfulness and I WON'T GIVE UP ON TRUSTING HIM.

Happy 8th wedding Anniversary today.

Your Loving Wife

January 18, 2014

Beth, its bittersweet..as we approach our one year mark, i too find myself reflecting..as much as i miss him, i pray to continue to be at peace with him not physically with us anymore. God is Sovereign, and i must trust that. A for of therapy. You know you are in my tears & in my prayers, too.

Beth Anderson

January 12, 2014

They say there is a reason, they say that time will heal, but neither time nor reason will change the way I feel. For no one knows the heartache and pain I feel, what lies behind the smiles, No one knows how many times, I have broken down and cried. I want to tell you something, so there won't be any doubt, you are so wonderful to think of, but so hard to live without.

Missing you so much

Beth Anderson

December 25, 2013

Merry Christmas...
Waking up this morning is very emotional without you here with your funny tricks, ie. finding my gifts or opening a strange gift. You were always making me laugh and talk to you; when you know that I am not a morning person. I miss you dearly, but it is comforting to know that you are celebrating Jesus's birthday with him and his Father.

I love you and we will be together again.

As everyone know, Myron's birthday is October 15th, I'm missing him so much. I was dreading this day and wondering how Me and everyone else that love him were going to get through this difficult day. I was telling his sister Cheryl and she came up with this wonderful idea to have a party with a purpose.... For his cause. Hence;

The family and friends of the late Myron Anderson would like for you to join us at The Red Rooster on October 13th, 2013 from 5 PM to 9 PM to help carry on his legacy, by having a party with a purpose.

Free admission, free food, giveaways, great music (lots of Temptations) and lots of dancing.

The Red Rooster is located at:
4937 MLK @ OST
Houston, TX. 77021
713-847-7757

Donations will be accepted to bless a student at Worthing Senior High School and Texas Southern University School of Communications.

Myron was always giving, now it's time for all of us to give back to keep his "Listening Back" legacy going and to help support both his alma maters.

March 13, 2013

My Sweetie,
Today marks 1 month since your memorial service and it seems as if it was just hours ago. I miss you so much. I never thought I would be crying in the grocery store over bananas, because you always made sure that Mama and me had bananas. Thank you for all the small things that you did in the 30 years that we've known each other but most of all thank you for being a my friend and for the 7 wonderful years of being my husband. You are the best of the best; I found the Valentine's card that you bought for me back in January. Now, I realize that you were on a mission and you had to get everything completed for your homegoing. I will always cherish our memories. I feel your presence with me now and forever. I can't believe you are gone. I know that you lived your life the way that you wanted to and you made so many people happy and proud, just to be in your presence. It was a good life and I know that you are at peace.


To all our friends, family and "Listening Back" fans: I "Thank you" for all of the support and kindness that you have shown and are still showing us. We appreciate and are grateful for what you have done to help us during our bereavement. Please find comfort in the following:

He Only Takes the Best:
God saw he was tired, and a cure was not to be, so he put his arms around him, and whispered 'Come with me'.

With tear-filled eyes, we watched him fade away, although we loved him deeply, we could not make him stay. A golden heart stopped beating, "Listening Back" hands put to rest. God broke our hearts to prove to us, he only takes the "BEST".

March 4, 2013

Thanks to all for the wonderful comments & the support for our family. There were so many facets that made up the wonderful personality of my Oldest brother & my mother's first born child. There are no words to express our pain,as well as the pain of his friends & listerners. Its through God's Grace & Sovereignty that we move forward with him in our hearts. The best tribute i can give him, is to take the life lessons that he has given me as his little sister & strive to be a better person. To God be the Glory! Myron, you truly lived your life's passion on your own terms with God's direction! Missing you Beyond words, but at peace with God's decision!

My wife Catherine and I listened so many Friday mornings to Myron's listening back, it was always entertaining and educational. When you called in for requests or info about a song or artist he was always cordial and willing to share his wealth of knowledge. We have much to be thankful for for the life; the blessing that we knew as Myron Anderson. To God be the Glory. Theodore Jones
