Myrtice will be missed. The service was just perfect, I am sure Myrtice would have enjoyed it. (May have!) The flowers were awesome and so symbolic with the family's explanation.
I was a member of EHC with her. Her calm, joyful, mild presence was appreciated.

I am sure Aunt Myrtice will
Be so pleased to see Uncle Audrey and put up with his teasing like he did years ago. Even though I didnt get to see her over the last 30 years, I've thought of her often, praying for you all. You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear family, Myrtice was a remarkable person. I'm blessed to call her my friend. I will miss her so much. Her last words to me "I Love You Deb" and I will never forget.
