Our dear, sweet, wonderful mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend, left this earth to dwell with her Heavenly Father and her eternal sweetheart on June 22, 1995.

She passed away at the home of her daughter, Gwen Brown in Woodruff, Utah, after a short illness. She was 86 years old.She was born October 11, 1908 in Panguitch, Utah to Henry George and Ane Marie Henrie Excell. She married her childhood sweetheart, James Levi Myers September 25, 1929 in Richfield, Utah. Sealed in the Logan Temple, May 28, 1931. He died March 10, 1985.

She worked for and retired from Mountain Bell Telephone Company after 25 years. She received many acknowledgments for perfect attendance, never being late or absent from work for 25 years.

As a member of the LDS Church, she held several positions. She especially loved being in the Relief Society presidency. She was an excellent seamstress, cook and housekeeper. She crocheted over 100 afghans and gave away, after she was 76 years old. She answered the telephone for 12 years for Myers Plumbing Co.

Her most treasured times were those when she was surrounded by her sweetheart, Levi, children and family, especially when she was able to do something for them. She loved camping out, hunting, fishing, reunions and her religion. She took time to keep in touch and hold her families together. She was loved and will be missed each day by all who knew her.
