Myra touched so many lives, including mine, in such a positive and unselfish way. My life is richer for having known such a loving, selfless, and genuine young woman. She exhibited such unique and wonderful qualities, at such a young age, that it was apparent she was destined for a life dedicated to family, and improving the lives of others. She will be sorely missed. Gray, you and Myra have instilled all of those wonderful qualities in Hannah and Jake. Our children add a touch of immortality to our memory! 04/26/2012 Posted by: Ken Craven My condolences to a fellow worker and friend. 04/26/2012 Posted by: Harold and Diane Smith To Gray, Jake and Hannah, The cancer didn't win. It couldn't destroy Myra's faith, her love of God, her hope, her prayer life, her love for you, her ability to bless others or her impact. Cancer could not take anything eternal from her. Myra has won and she has overcome by the blood of the Lamb and the word of her testimony. Her absence will be painful for all of us but take comfort in knowing that she is now in the presence of the One who kept all of his promises to her. May Grace abound toward each of you. Harold and Diane Smith 04/26/2012 Posted by: Lou May She is at peace and out of pain. The legacy she left us with will be around for years and years to come. She touched and changed so many lives.

To loose a wife/best friend after all these years leaves a emptiness in your heart that only God can fill. To loose a mother when we are so young and still continue to need guidance is unbearable.

I know she has impacted many. I believe Myra would say these words from Ps. 16... 5 Lord, you alone are my inheritance, my cup of blessing. You guard all that is mine. 6 The land you have given me is a pleasant land. What a wonderful inheritance! 7 I will bless the Lord who guides me; even at night my heart instructs me. 8 I know the Lord is always with me. I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me. 9 No wonder my heart is glad, and I rejoice.[b] My body rests in safety. 10 For you will not leave my soul among the dead[c] or allow your holy one[d] to rot in the grave. 11 You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever.[e] 04/24/2012 Posted by: Jim Wilson 04/24/2012 Posted by: Cindy McKnight Our thoughts and prayers are with you and Myra will be in our hearts forever.

Anthony & Jamie Clodfelter 04/24/2012 Posted by: Lisa Lycans Myra's gift to me was she taught me how to worship not just with reading words but with my whole being, through Myra I was able to let go of my "religious chains" and find it was ok to dance ok to lift my hands, ok to shed my tears, forever I will be grateful for that Freedom I found in Christ because of Myra, and for the influence she had on my children the encouragement she gave the everlasting impact she has made on all of our lives.
