Miriam was my sister-in-law. She was a wonderful companion to my brother, and always hospitable and warm when my spouse and I visited them.

Miriam was a lovely woman. I have many fond memories of time spent in her presence, either at her home or at the Gold Hill Methodist Church. Miriam and her husband, Ervin, were two very special people in my life and I will miss them both. My sympathy to all of Miriam's family and friends.
