I have fond memories of Aunt Myrtle. When I was growing up, we used to spend our Sundays up in Ona to see my Mom's family. Miss them all. May God comfort the family with His love and care during this hard time.

My heart is full of wonderful memories of Aunt Myrtle. She always spoke with such a gentle voice. But something tells me that when she had to get her kids in line she knew when to be firm. She had a gift for giving very loving hugs and she wore a perfume that always smelled so good. Most of my time being near her came when I was growing up. During those years I was influenced by her kindness and her caring for her family.
