She was the best great grandma ever always playing go-fish with us ❤️❤️
Myra was my only girl cousin on the Packard side of our family. She was more like the big sister I admired from the days I watched Leo come pick her up on a date to go jitter-bugging to the visits to our last surviving 99 yr old Aunt Rose. We celebrated most of our November 9th & 10th birthdays together. More recently, we had a wonderful weekend visit with her brother, Bub, and his family in Lafayette and shared a lifetime of family memories. Myra always could bring the sunshine with her positive spin on things. We shared lots of laughter that weekend. Last February we got together in Covington with our cousin Bill Kuhn and his family for what would be our last gathering before COVID restrictions set in. We were all so glad we had a chance to do that. Myra loved going for rides whenever Kevin and I were in town. It didn’t matter where to or how long we kept her out. Myra was always ready for fun even at a moment’s notice. She loved her children and her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was very proud of how kind and attentive they were of her. She felt so loved by all of them. Maybe Myra’s greatest gift was that she made us all feel loved and safe and cared for. We will miss her sweet smile and kind words forever. Love, Marylouise & Kevin Keenan
I remember Myra as being sweet and smart. We were classmates beginning in the 5th grade, until our 1957 graduation from Sacred Heart of Jesus in New Orleans.
I did not see Myra again for many many years. I was living in Covington and working at Lakeview Regional Hospital. One day, I went into Medical Records Dept. to get a chart, and there was Myra working in the dept. We both recognized each other and decided to get together. Myra became part of the "hand and foot" card group that I was in.
After the devastating hit of Hurricane Katrina in 2005, I was extremely worried when another storm was heading towards my home. I have many large Pine trees on property, and knowing that I lived alone with 2 dogs, Myra called and insisted I come stay with her for the storm. So my 2 dogs and I went to Myras house and stayed with her 2 granddaughters, her son and her daughter, Lisa. And cant forget about Myras dog Max. Everyone was so kind and courteous that my dogs and I felt right at home.
I will never forget Myra's kindness and generosity.
A very special lady, who was very kind and loving and I will miss her greatly.

I worked with Myra at EJGH in the Medical Records Dept in the mid 80's. Being right out of high school, it was my first "real" job. Myra took me under her wing and trained me with patience, kindness and friendship. She always had stories to tell about her husband and her children. She was so proud of them. May her family find comfort in knowing there is a guardian angel now watching over them. God Bless all of you. Judy Cambre Boraks
