    I had hear last year that Myrna had cancer. I am sorry she had it so rough, My husband Martin always liked Myrna he said she always told it like it was. When I came to KY we always saw each other and family when i came to Steubenville. I last saw her at a Thomas reunion i think 3 or 4 years ago.
