    Myrt was one of my dearest friends. She had an aura about her that made you think “now here is a true Lady in every sense of the word”. Strong willed, but gentle in her ways. A beloved Christian with a beautiful singing voice who sang in the church choir for many years. I can say that I miss her very much and loved her dearly. Until we meet for lunch in Heaven sweet friend.

    Dear Karen and Jenny,
    Was thinking if you and tried a search when I saw that you lost your mom. So sorry for your loss but know that she is in a great place.
    God bless you and your families.
    I would love to reconnect with you. I am currently on FB under jonbev Hatfield
