Since we were both married to ministers in the town of Pomfret, I knew Myra for many years. But it wasn`t until we both lost our husbands within 3 months of each other in 2007 that I got to know her well. Being with her and sharing good conversations about anything and everything were sources of many good times for me, as well as sources of comfort when she knew that was needed. Her sense of humor, and her recognition of life`s ridiculous aspects, including her ability to laugh at herself, meant that there was much laughter when we were together. And I will never forget our cheerful lunches at Sweet Evalina`s when we always ordered dessert first to make sure that we got our favorite kind of pie. Myra`s friendship meant a great deal to me. She was one of a kind, and I will always cherish my memories of her!
