Barbara Britt Myrick

Barbara is preceded in death by the love of her life; her husband of over 50 years, Murry Wilson Myrick, Jr. and a grandson, Ryan Myrick. She is survived by her children, son Kevin Myrick, and son Brian Myrick and his wife, Beverly, and a granddaughter Taylor Grulke and her husband Justin.

Barbara graduated from Kempsville High school in 1951. She lived in Avalon Terrace for 65 years, where she raised her boys and was a dedicated PTA president for Woodstock Elementary. Barbara created Hobbies & Crafts with Barbara in 1977. She was a talented Folk Art painter, and enjoyed the ladies that took classes at her shop.

We would like to acknowledge neighbors Lucky & Phyllis Allen, and Chris & Janet Rogers for keeping an eye out for Barbara over the years. Judy Ryals, for moving in and caring for Barbara these past 2 years. You cannot know how much we appreciate you.

Barbara wanted a private service and we are honoring her wishes. In lieu of flowers, please donate to any of the Alzheimer’s organizations.
