Mrs. Myra Ethel Willett

Myra was born to Norvel and Elnora Switzer in Homesville, Nebraska on March 25, 1924. She was the 7th born in a family of 10 children. She served in the Navy Military Branch during World War II as a medical assistant and also in the capacity of what was fondly named “Rosy the Riveter.” It was during the time of her military service that she met Robert Willett, whom she was the beloved wife to for 63 years. They were married September 9, 1945. They raised two daughters, Carol and Nancy. In retirement, Bob and Myra traveled all over the world together leading golf tournaments with International Leisure Tours. At home, Myra’s garden brought great joy to her, especially her beautiful rosebushes.

Myra is survived by her daughter, Carol, her grandchildren Bekah, Bobby, Caleb, Kimma, and Sarah, her great-grandchildren Giovanni, Haley, Tyler, and Magdalena, her sister-in-law Dolores, her nephew Roger and her niece Diane.
