From the moment Myrna entered this world and took her first breath-God already had his plan made out for her..She was to be one of his angels in human form..He had high expectations for her and she exceeded them all..She now has her wings and its her time to soar..The foot prints she left is her legacy of LOVE…
You’re in my thoughts, my heart and my prayers..So sorry for your loss-the world has lost a special person..Wishing you and the family strength and peace..

So so sorry to hear about Myrna. She was my friend and mentor when I started working at Good Sam Rehab first as a nursing assistant, then as an LPN and RN. She taught me much and taught me well. Always a compassionate person. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.

Myrna – you will be missed, and I will keep your family in my prayers. I too started as a nursing assistant, became an LPN then an RN. Myrna was a great mentor, teacher and always had a smile. A sad day for those who knew her….
