Sweet, kind, generous, loving Myrna - you are loved and will be greatly missed! Thanks for always remembering special things like birthdays and complementing me on my family and my successes. I can hear your laughter in my ears and see you dear sweet smile. Your skin glowed not only from JAFRA wonderful creams, but from the inner soul. Love you, Myrna. My deepest sympathies go out to family and friends. "HUGS" Carrie L. Jensen p.s. I am saving Myrna's last voice message to me. It was on Dec. 26 and she loved my Christmas Card that was a picture of my family. "Beautiful Family" she said and I regret that I didn't get her called back. Hope she got my Valentine's Thank You note before her passing.
