Milton was born March 26, 1938 in Davenport, the son of Gerald and Viola (Mason) Meyers. He worked for Iowa Illinois Gas and Electric, retiring from MidAmerican after thirty-six years of employment. Milton celebrated fifty-nine years of marriage to Lynda (Lint) Meyers.
Milton enjoyed music, movies, and mealtime with his family. He was a man of many hobbies and wide-ranging interests. In his twenties, he built and attempted to fly a gyrocopter; in his sixties he built a telescope. Throughout his life, Milton built lasting memories of his exploits and quick laughter for those he leaves behind.
He was well loved by his family, children, Chris (Mary) and Keith (Jesse Wen). He will be missed by many, including his grandchildren, Ben and Anna, and his sister, Sharon Dettman.
Milton was preceded in death by his parents, Gerald and Viola, and his wife, Lynda.
