To all that knew Myrna, knew she was truely a Saint. One of the kindest ladies I have been blessed to know. She and Carl always welcomed me and my family to their home for the holidays. The Lord must have needed another Angel in Heaven because she was definitely an Angel on Earth. To Myrna’s husband Carl, to her Son “Mac” my Brother from another Mother and to the rest of the family, I am so so sorry for your loss. May God bless all of you in this difficult time. And to Myrna, my Mother from another brother, so long, until we meet again.
Our prayers are with you. Sorry she has passed away, but knowing that she is there with her sweet daughter and her parents. As momma would say, heaven is richer, but we’re poorer. All our love.
So sorry that she is gone yet happy that she has her golden wings & gets to talk to the Savior, Jesus Christ.
She is probably saying hello to everyone that she knows in Heaven & having a great time.
She was great lady & will be missed by all that knew her.
Love,
Kathy Biggs

I had the pleasure of working with Myrna in the Compliance department at Amarillo National Bank. She was truly a great co-worker and friend. Heaven has gained by our loss.
