Chuck and I were very blessed to be in a Bible Study with John and Myra for many years. Myra and I also were part of many events at church and Inter Se study club. I cherish the many great talks we had. She was a very special lady and will be greatly missed. I am a better person for having her as my friend.

Your whole family is in my thoughts and prayers. I admired Myra from a distance for a long time, but since she’s been getting eggs from the Kliment hens I’ve had many wonderful conversations about life, this world, Jesus, and what is to come. Thankful she is with her Savior. May God give you peace in these difficult days.

I was privileged to know this beautiful lady and blessed by her always positive outlook and attitude to the world we live in. Her kindness was given to everyone with a smile. I will never forget Myra.
