Myrna Faye Grant

Celebration of Life service for Myrna Grant, 86, will be Saturday, September 13, 2025, at 11:00 a.m. at the Ralls Cemetery Chapel with Ricky Grant officiating. Burial will follow under direction of Adams Funeral Home. Myrna passed away Thursday, September 11, 2025, in Lubbock, Texas.

Myrna was born January 17, 1939, to T. J. and Grace Taylor in Petersburg, Texas. After her father, T. J. Taylor was killed in a tragic accident, Grace married Paul McGuire and Paul raised Myrna as his own. She attended schools in Petersburg and graduated high school there in 1957. On June 22, 1957, she married Norman "Sonny" Grant and together they had three children: Ricky, Kerry, and D'Ann. Myrna was most happy as a homemaker for her family. She served as school secretary at Ralls Middle School and Ralls High School. After retirement from the school system, Myrna spent much of her time crocheting. She made crocheted dishcloths, cross bookmarks and other works of art, but mostly she crocheted personalized names for families. At last count, she had crocheted almost 3,000 family names that now hang in homes all over the world. For many years, you could find her alongside Sonny as they travelled to area towns to play in the local community musicals each weekend, and she and Sonny enjoyed travelling the roads with friends in their RV. After Sonny died in 2005, she continued living in their home in Ralls until she went to live in Levelland with her daughter, D'Ann and family. Later, she moved to Mackenzie Court in Lubbock, where she was living at the time of her death. She was a member of First Baptist Church in Ralls, TX.

Myrna was predeceased by her husband, Norman, her parents, T. J. Taylor, Grace and Paul McGuire; her sister, Charlotte Traylor; Norman's family, Noble and Letha Grant, Roger Grant, Marie Barnett, and Mavis Walker.

Her sister, Tena Allen, of Springdale, Arkansas, and an aunt who was like a sister, Wilma Newton, of Holts Summit, Missouri.

Her family was her greatest joy, and her last days were enriched by visits from her kids, grandkids and especially the great grandkids. They will remember "Grandmother" with the fondest of memories.
