Myrna is preceded in death by her parents, Lee and Belle, and siblings Flossie Sook, Nola Seefeld, Betty Fisher, Jeanne Murray, Richard Schofield, Raymond “Sonny” Schofield, Beulah Washkuhn, and Ramona, who died in infancy. She is survived by her sister, Vera Smith, sister-in-law Pat Schofield, best friend Jean Larson, and many generations of nieces and nephews, all who love her dearly and will miss her terribly. Myrna’s greatest joys were being with her extensive family and many friends, visiting the family farm where she grew up, reading, playing cards, doing artwork, and just puttering around her beloved little house in the woods where she lived for many years. Having a fun loving and adventurous spirit, Myrna traveled all over the US and out of the country and went zip lining on her 80th birthday.
Myrna wished to be cremated, and for her family and friends to get together and share fond memories, a good laugh and a cold one, and talk smart. A memorial will be held at Rembs Funeral Home on Saturday, April 30 from noon to 1 p.m. Please join us to celebrate the beauty and magic of Aunt Myrt’s life at the Schofield farm in Spencer after the memorial. There will be a get-together in her honor at her neighborhood hangout, Pickles, at a later date for her Hazelhurst friends and family.
Myrna’s family is forever grateful to her Leisure Shores and Hazelhurst/Minocqua friends who were so loving and supportive to her over the years and helped her to live independently for so long.
“The beasts, they hunger, and eat and die; and so do we, and the world’s a sty;
Hush, fellow swine: why nuzzle and cry?
Swinehood hath no remedy.”
