I am heartbroken. Myrtle was such a gift. A beautiful sweet & sensitive gift. We shared so many deep conversations at work. She tried her best to keep in contact with me after I left the job. She made it very clear how much she cared about me. We had so much in common and I am grieving her loss. I am regretful for what I missed out on with her. I will never forget her & what we shared. I am so sad for her daughter whom she loved SO much as well as her other loved ones. I pray for strength for her precious Ayesha. My sincerest condolences.

Myrtle was my retirement buddy and my sister in Christ. She was down to earth, honest and caring. It was so easy to talk with her. I enjoyed her laughter and positivity. I will so deeply miss her. Words cannot express the loss I feel, but I know she is with the Lord and on this I can rejoice. Ayesha, trust in God in all things. If you need me, call me.

I am so very saddened to hear about the passing of Myrtle. I worked with her for many years at the Cleveland Heights-University Heights Public Library. Myrtle was a kind, warm and generous-hearted person. She was looked upon as a leader among her work colleagues and throughout the entire Library system. She was dearly missed by us with her retirement from the library. My heart, with hugs, goes out to Myrtle's, daughter, family, and friends, for I can only imagine the great sadness and sense of loss they must be feeling. She will be remembered.
