Myra devoted a large part of her life to making Newington a better place. She was a prominent and active member of the Newington Kiwanis family, and she spent many hours helping others. It was an honor and a privilege to have worked with her and to be able to call her a friend.

Al, Marlene, Francine and Steven,
How do you begin to speak of Myra and her accomplishments? Her dedication to the town of Newington and to B'Nai Tikvoh-Shalom was immeasurable. She was a giant among giants, despite her 4' 10" frame. She always spoke from her heart, and for that she was respected and admired by all, including those of us on the Newington Democratic Town Committee were privileged to know her and work with her. May she rest in peace.
Sholom, Myra.
