Special thanks to the staff of the

care given to Myrna.
In her own words, she wanted to
express “My sincere thanks to my friend and son-in-law,
James Veneau, who gave me love, support and care during some very hard
times. I was always number one to him and earned the title of being a
good old country girl that could do what she wanted, when she wanted.
His love for me was unconditional, neither did he expect anything or
want anything.”
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of MYRNA MELVIN 19412019..
