Myrtle Yvonne May was the eighth of nine children born to William Logan May and Minnie Agnes Muskat. She married John William Partridge Sr. on June 19, 1938 in Newton, Kansas. They had three sons and two daughters and also adopted one son and daughter. Her husband died just a couple weeks before their 65th anniversary. She was also preceeded in death by her first daughter, Patricia ("Pat").
Aunt Myrtle was such a giving soul. She just seemed to "mother" everyone around. She would write poems and songs and she loved to sing. She was the last family member from her generation to leave us. We are saddened that we have lost that last connection to our past... her memories of the relatives we knew only by names and dates in the genealogy files... but we rejoice that she was here and shared our lives. We know that her light lives on in her children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren AND great-great grandchildren.
