Dear Family,

I just learned about Brother Myres's passing, and am very sadened by the news. Brother Myres was one of the angels that guided my road and made my life a lot easier when I was attending BYU. Bless his heart! I will never forget his warmth, friendliness and love for everyone. One day, we will meet him again, and then it will be forever. I send my sincere condolences to each and everyone of the family members, and, especially, to Sister Paula. ALL MY LOVE!

Keith and Paula were friends to the friendless and the widow. My little family's triumphs over adversity are directly related to their expressed love for the Savior, patience and obedience to Gospel Covenants.
We are truly fortunate to have been associated with such good people.

In gratitude and love to the entire family -

Keith was an amazingly strong man. His mortal body was not kind to him, but he took on the challenge to make his life meaningful in any way he could. He was an example of dedication to the Lord, to his family, to his friends and neighbors. He and Paula raised an amazing family and he will be missed by all. He passed the test of this mortal life and will continue to be a positive influence from on high...Thank heavens we know that the grave is not the end, but the beginning of the next...
