Glen William Myers

Myers, Glen William (Age 80) Went to be with his heavenly Father on June 5, 2011. He passed peacefully in his home with his family by his side after a courageous battle with cancer. Born to Floyd and Myrtle Myers on October 7, 1930, in Loveland, CO as the youngest of five children, Glen spent most of his youth in Loveland before moving to Twin Falls, ID in 1945. On April 18, 1949 he married the love of his life, Pearl Ester Koeppen of Elko, NV. They moved their family to Spokane in 1956. Glen worked in the automotive industry for 35 years before retiring in 1998 from Camp Chevrolet in Spokane, WA. Glen has been a member of St. John’s Lutheran Church since 1956. He played an active role in his faith acting as a lay minister and taking joy in his faith.

Glen’s interests included traveling, dancing with his wife, Gonzaga basketball, Mariners baseball, woodworking, fishing, but most of all spending time with his family. He was preceded in death by 2 beloved sons, Neil Dean Myers 1955 and Sheldon Glen Myers 2002, who has been left unsupervised for much too long and is probably in so much trouble by now that he needs his Dad by his side. This is most likely a big job; his two sisters, Ruby and Faye, and his oldest brother, Donald Myers. Glen is survived by his wife of 62 years, Pearl Myers; brother, Ralph Myers of Boise, ID; two sons, Wayne Myers (Christine), and Daniel Myers (Colleen); daughter in-law, Susan Myers; 6 grandsons, Dammon Myers, Justin Myers, Kevin Myers (Hannah), Joshua Myers, Jason Myers and Michael Myers; one granddaughter, Jessica Myers; 3 great grandsons, Scott, Jaxson and Caleb; 3 great granddaughters, Kenadie, Morgan and Madison and one great granddaughter, Marlee, due in August 2011, all of Spokane, WA. A Memorial Service to celebrate his life will be held at 12:00 P.M., Friday, June 17, 2011, at St. John’s Lutheran Church, 5810 South Meadow Lane Road, Spokane, WA 99224. Memorial contributions may be made to St. John’s Lutheran Church or charity of your choice.
