What I will remember about my husband's Aunt Myrtle, is that she seemed to so easily see the "wonderfulness" in people, and wouldn't hesitate to tell them so!...Always cheerful, engaging, and curious about your life, and totally interested. She was a darling!

Having worked with the Boedecker's for nearly 7 years, Myrt, Carl and Karen became family to me. Always cheerful and loving. I will miss Myrtle's quick sense of humor and her generous spirit. I am truly grateful and blessed to have had her in my life.
