2/27/09 From Robin Gaetani & Rob England

I first met Myra when I was working at Gartner, geez, had to have been back in 2001 that we met?! It was instantly that we began laughing together; I made her first birthday countdown that she so proudly hung on the outside wall of her cube, right under her name!!! I’d not known what I would have done if she wasn’t just a few cubicles away from me…many days, more than I could count, she lifted my spirits. Most beautiful thing about it was that she knew exactly when I needed it; without me even letting on I needed a boost. Now, we all are to return the many “liftings” I’m sure she has done for so many more peeps…for those days, I am forever indebted to you Myra; and I know you know how much it meant to me. When I left Gartner in 2002 we kept in touch; I lost my mother during that year and Myra was there for me…and now, me for her, for always. Myra always successfully tackled any task she started, with poise, positivity and ease. The generosity and love exude from her beautiful soul, I can’t remember a day that I didn’t see her gorgeous pearly whites, (have you ever seen such perfect teeth by the way???) never to let anything get her down and persistent with instilling that same attitude in to as many blessed individuals as possible. I know, with all I have in my heart, that this battle she is facing now will end even more successful than any endeavor brought to her. Strong will and natural positivity beat anything that comes in its way; love and devotion keeps us sane during tough times, friends keep us laughing…may you look at that “rose angel” and find strength. I love you Myra! Keep on keepin’ on…
Love, peace & hair grease!!!! I’m out!
