The first time I met Myrna was in 2021. I am quite certain we (Wendy and I) were invited to one of Tammy's fires at her trailer. My memory is a little fuzzy, but I think I brought over my guitar. I played for awhile and then Myrna showed up. I am not much of a country player, but I managed a song by Dr Hook (Cover of the Rolling Stone) not country I know but that quickly became Myrna's favorite song for me to play. After quiet time ( I believe 11:00 pm) we packed up and went to Myrna's porch. After a little coaxing by family and friends, she got out her guitar. The first song I "remember" hearing is " Hang my Wings upon Your Horns" by Loretta Lynn. After that it was all history, she would get me to play Dr Hook, and I would get her to play Loretta. I absolutely loved the way she played and sang...I will forever remember the times we spent together and cherish the times we sang together.
