Myrna White Tail was a beautiful person. She was a Mother, Wife, Grandmother, Sister, and Daughter. All of which she excelled at through her strength, insight, sense of humor, kindness, and most of all, her belief in God. Those that know her, know that she always had a smile and loved to tease. She loved to be here and there, socializing with whoever about whatever. She was very easy to talk with because of the true empathy she had. The insight she gave to those who asked was gained by a hard life. One of the things she used to say was, "Don't give up, keep going. God never gives you anything you can't handle."

Myrna was and is still, a strong believer in God and loved to express her faith in conversations, singing, and praying. She also loved her family, which besides God, was her main focus in life. She extended herself mentally, emotionally, and spiritually at anytime no matter what sacrifice she had to make to her own well-being. Myrna White Tail was and is a beautiful person.
