Carol and family: Kind of ironic — your Mum & mine both passed in February — each were the youngest and last surviving member of their immediate family — my Mum of nine and your Mom of 10 — and your Mom and I share January 13th birth date. Sending Hugs and Sincere Condolences.

My deepest sympathy to the Geddes and Knell family . Myra was a true lady. Her genuine kindness to all whom she met. Myra always treated people from all walks of life with respect and dignity. She adored you, her family. Especially her great love of her grandchildren.
Myra, you are missed. Rest in peace.

Remember Myra from many years ago. I lived across the street on Payzant street. I was Julie Chandler. My mom and Myra were friends. She came home in the summer times to visit her family. I remember her as a beautiful lady with a beautiful smile. My thoughts and prayers are with the family at this time of grief.
Sincerely Julie Wilson(chandler)

Barbara and Borden Dorey
May the family bathe in the memories of Myra’s kind and considerate soul. Never ever did I hear her say a bad word about anybody and she was genuine about her interest in talking to people as she always asked the best questions and she really was a great listener. She never went without lipstick or being dressed up. I am so terribly sorry that I personally won’t be at the funeral to see the family especially Gloria and Liz and Merna and David. Deeply sorry for not being there at the funeral and was so pleased with all the photos if Myra here. Hugs and thoughts are with you and your loss. Like so many said She was a lady.
