God called Myron to his eternal resting place with Him on Saturday, September 25, 2021, while at the home he was born in. Myron was Baptized into Christ Jesus on August 30, 1936, by Pastor L. C. Lentz at St. John's Lutheran Church in rural Byron. He confirmed his faith on March 18, 1951, by Rev. Karl Graff. His confirmation verse was 2 Corinthians 12:9. Myron attended rural country school near Byron through eighth grade and graduated from Byron High School in 1954. On August 25, 1963, he was united in marriage to Fairy Higel at Trinity Lutheran Church in Bruning by Pastor John Hieronymous. To this union, two sons, Matthew and Evan, were born. One of Myron's favorite stories was hand building a wood boat in the haymow of the barn. On their first date, he took Fairy to see the boat. Myron began farming and raising livestock while in high school and continued until his retirement 5 years ago. During his many years of farming, the only new tractor he purchased was a 1957 Oliver Super 77. He also had many years of custom baling. Myron and Fairy enjoyed round and square dancing during their 58 years of marriage. He was active in his church and community, serving on the church council and Byron's school board.
