      Myrle Fletcher Miner departed peacefully from this earthly existence on Sunday, September 29, 1996, at home. She was wonderful and loving wife, mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

Myrle married her sweetheart Ellis Devere Miner on July 17, 1935, in the Logan LDS Temple. They had been married for 61 wonderful years at the time of her death. She was an active member of the LDS Church, having served in many capacities in the Primary, Relief Society, and Young Women organizations on both ward and stake levels. She loved the gospel of Jesus Christ and lived by its principles with devotion. She was a very talented artist and enjoyed sharing her artistic abilities with her family and many others. She was an active member of the Preston B. Nibley Camp of the D.U.P. for many years.

Nielsen, Clearfield; Paul (Karen) David Miner, Orlando, Florida; and Mrs. Michael (Karen) D. Braegger, Brigham City; 22 grandchildren, 14 great-grandchildren.

      Myrle's family would like to give special thanks to the many nurses and aides of Creekside Home Health Care and to the members of the Logan 7th Ward for their many years of love and devoted service which they have to her.

      Sweetheart, Mom, and Grandma, you have been a solid rock in our life trials and we will miss your sweet presence greatly. We know you are ever near.
