After her education, Myrna worked at the Wawanesa Mutual Insurance Company in Wawanesa. Myrna met the love of her life, John Addison in Carberry, Manitoba and they married in 1947, enjoying 56 years of blissful marriage before his passing in 2003. Soon after being married, they moved to Winnipeg and started a family. Myrna was an avid sewer, honing her expert skills in making clothes for her children and herself.

Myrna was a gentle soul, much loved by all. Myrna cherished time spent with her family and will be greatly missed. She will be forever in our hearts. A private service has been held at Green Acres.
