Irvin Myron, 82, passed away on April 23, 2022 at New Aldaya Lifescapes in Cedar Falls, IA.
Irv was born in Lanesboro, MN to Esther and Irvin Myron. He graduated from Harmony High School in 1958. Irv met Molly his senior year in high school at a sock hop at Notre Dame high school. After high school, Irv joined the Army in January 1959 and served at Fort Rucker, Alabama. After his discharge from the Army in 1962, he attended Winona State University, married Molly at Immanuel Lutheran Church in Cresco, IA in 1964 and then graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education. Irv and Molly returned to Cresco to Molly's family farm in 1966. His teaching career consisted of teaching 6th grade at both Ridgeway and Elma. In December of 1970, he obtained his master's degree at the University of Northern Colorado in Education Administration. Irv served as an Elementary Principal at Elma, Lime Springs and Ridgeway until he retired in 1997.
Irv and Molly were blessed with two amazing children, Susie and Jeff. As a family, they had many adventures like Florida, the Bahamas, California, Colorado, and Mexico to name a few. One of Irv's biggest joys was spending time with his grandkids. He enjoyed attending dance recitals, soccer games, band concerts, football games and all those wonderful grandkid activities.
