Sunday's Obituary - Annie Myrtle Handy Goard



Annie Myrtle Handy Goard

My Aunt Myrtle Goard was born October 12, 1919 in Patrick County, Virginia and died November 22, 1978 in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.  She is buried next to her late husband, Joseph Amos Goard at Forsyth Memorial Park in Winston-Salem.  At the time of her death, I remember Mom (Delcie), Paula and I were living outside of Orlando, Florida and we had to fly to North Carolina.  It was one of the few times I remember Mom ever flying on a plane. 

I emailed the Forsyth County Public Library in Winston-Salem and they emailed me back her obituary below.  Her obituary appeared in the Twin City Sentinel, November 23, 1978 on page 20.
