We were very saddened to learn of Myrtle's passing. My earliest memory of Myrtle was when I, as a very young child, lived next door to her parents; since that time over 65 years ago, we have always kept in touch. She was a beautiful, wonderful woman who lived a long and very rich life; she leaves cherished memories for all who knew her. She shall be missed!

Ed & I were saddened when we heard the news of Aunt Myrtle's passing. What can you say about Myrtle, she lived a very full life, a kind, compassionate & generosity person that no one can equal. Loved her family & friends with a passion that everyone should have. She also took alot of pictures at every occassion. When she would take her camera out we all would say "Oh No - Not the Camera". She did enjoy taking her pictures. She will be missed by us. Our sympathy to all of her family.
