Myrtle L. Booker

As a SCAN member of the KCSO I always enjoyed our visits with Myrtle. She loved life and her family and was always a joy to visit. RIP.

My life is more enriched for having known Myrtle. Laughter and smiles were as natural as breathing for her. Her flower bed story will always be part of my smile. I grieve her absence, and reassured that she is resting in eternal life. She represented God, Christ, and her family to the very end in the highest degree. It's an honor and privilege to have been even a small part of her life.

When I think about Myrtle I think about how warm & welcoming she was. Such a sweet family loving woman. What I love most about Myrtle is how she accepted me for who I was. Heaven gained a Godly woman & I pray ALL her memories will carry her family & friends through during difficult times.

We love you Myrtle

Rest in peace Myrtle. As a SCAN volunteer it was always a pleasure to visit you. We always enjoyed your smile and the best sweet tea. Heaven has gained an angel. Our sincere sympathy to your family.

Myrtle, was a friend to everyone! So sorry for your loss.

I'M SORRY FOR LOSS WE MISS HER AND TALK TO YOU KEEP IN PRAYER WE LOVE YOU ALWAY
BARBARA BOOKED AND AMANDA CLAPP

We never got to meet our grandfather, her brother Paul Seal, but when I personally was around her I felt like I a piece of him was with us. I'll never forget her always greeting me with a smile and a hug. We all loved aunt Myrtle..she will be missed.

Travis and family, Brandi, So sorry for yet another loss. You've been through a lot in past and your Mamaw was always there for you. So proud that you all stepped up and took care of her and each other. I'm sure your mom is proud. Prayers and condolences to you and all the family. Love you all! God Bless!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.
There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.

I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.

There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember you're not going.....you're coming here to me.
