Myrtle was born February 24th, 1930, in Phelps, KY to Lon and Nann {McCoy} Stiltner.
She married Luther Whitt in Virginia, and they lived together for about 15 years before he passed away.

Myrtle was preceded in death by her daughter Juanita Davis (infant) and son David Gene Davis, several brothers and sisters as well as her parents.
The family and friends will have a time to meet and visit at 2:00 pm on February 24th, 2024. At Mrs Whitt's home - 1 Eastgate Dr. Mount Vernon, OH 43050
