Dr Myers and family,
I am sorry to hear of the passing of your wife - I remember first meeting you in August of 1985 as you were the one to hire me as a Latin teacher here at Father Ryan ....... and I somehow made it through to my 30th this year. I have fond memories of my early years at Ryan, and I get to thank you for them !!! I am glad to see your kids have grown and a newer generation is following behind them. May God grant you all the peace, grace, and mercy in the days and weeks to come. Bobby H

I was privileged to know Jan when she worked at Cookeville. She was one of the nicest people I have ever known. She had a genuine care for the people we took care of, and for the people she worked with. I am sorry to hear of her passing except that I believe Heaven is a place of peace and rest for people like Jan. I hope tp meet her there when my own life ends. My thoughts and prayers are with her family for now. Elaine Phillips
