their only preferred 'vacation' from it. In her spare time, Myrna cultivated both vegetable and flower gardens,

played countless card games with friends and family, and was a staple in the St. John's Hart Kitchen Band for many years. She was also

immensely proud of her kids and grandchildren, especially at their sporting events.
