My heart and prayers go out to all of Myra's family. I met her at Walmart soon after she started. It didn't take long to realize how much she enjoyed life. She was always thinking positively. I am proud to have all the fun memories we made together in the short time I knew her. Even our serious "talks" soon turned to laughter. I will certainly miss her.

To Linda, and the entire Mogle family,
We are very sorry to hear of the loss of your loved one. I have heard so many great things of Myra from my mother-in-law Mary Lou Landreth. And Peggy has many good memories of going with her mom to visit Myra. Linda, it sure sounds like you inherited many of your mom's wonderful qualities. We would like to express our sympathy, and pass along our thoughts and prayers.

One of the fondest memories of my life was an evening spent at the dining table of the Mogle house as Myra served us all Grasshoppers (the drink) and turkey fries. This was before I knew what turkey fries were.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Cindi, Linda, Buddy and all the Mogle family. Myra was truly an earthly angel and will be treasured as much in heaven as she was on earth.
Most sincerely, Mark and Susan McCann

Our deepest sympathy to the family of Myra - we went to grade school, high school, and were active members of the Fifth Presbyterian Church together. Myra was always a fun loving person and we hope she has not had bad health and had to suffer as we have not seen her for a long time.. Although I (Beverly)was a couple of years older, we always had fun together. She certainly will be missed!

I worked with Myra at Walmart only since February but she was, what we called in the 1950s, a lady. What drew me to her initially was her sense of humor. She was truly one of a kind and I will certainly miss her.

Myra was definitely a lovely lady. Had many good talks with her when I'd run into her at WalMart, catching up on the kids. She was a proud mother and had a lot to be proud of. She's a woman that will be surely missed.
