Myrna was a very special friend to me. Everyone who met her loved her. She was a woman ahead of her time, and people young and old were drawn to her gentle nature. She will be missed. I love you Myrna.

Jeanne, I worked with Myrna at FNBLR, in fact, she was one of the first people I met when I went to work there in 1962. She remained a good friend through the years. I know how much you loved your mother. It is evident from the wonderful care you gave her in her later years. God will reward you for that--"Honor thy father and mother." My sincere condolences to you and your family. God Bless!

I loved Myrna so much. Even though we lived so far apart and we rarely saw one another, she made me feel like I was one of her best friends. I'll never forget her.

Myrna was my first boss at First National Bank in LR. We became friends and remained so until her death. Her daughter, Jeanne Walthall and I graduated from Central together, and we remained friends for these many years. She was a faithful caregiver and dedicated daughter. Our prayers go out to Jeanne and all of the family. Rest in Peace sweet lady. I have so many great memories of you and your family and our First National Family.
