We are so sorry for your loss. He will truly be missed.
Myron and Marge lived a few blocks away. They were such good people! The entire neighborhood loved them! I remember how good they were to Ginger, their little rescue dog. Myron walked her a lot and we always had good conversations. My deepest sympathy to Marge and the rest of Myron ‘s family. May he rest in eternal peace.
