A Memorial Service will be held next Saturday February 29, 2020 at Wiley Funeral Home in Granbury Texas. Visitation and service will be held from 10:00am to 12:00pm.
Myra was born on December 15, 1928 in Bluff Dale, TX to Mark and Myra Faye Rhoades. She married Friedrich Zimmermann on August 1, 1952. She was a loving faithful wife and mother.
Myra was a devout Christian lady who loved the Lord. She taught Sunday School and was very active in the Woman's Missionary Union. She was a missionary at heart who gave all honor and glory to our sovereign God for her uncommon talent.
She was a world renown water colorist whose work was shared from her homes located in Fort Worth TX, Clinton OK, Fairbanks AK, Omaha NE, Hurst TX, Morgan Mill TX, and of late, Granbury TX.
While stationed in Alaska, the Fairbanks Art Gallery solely displayed her work of Alaskan motif. A doctor from Wayland, Massachusetts came to view, and subsequently purchased the entire exhibit. Her every residence from thence became an Art Gallery. Her paintings and crafts have now been scattered and admired throughout the world.
Myra is survived by her husband of 67 years, "Fred"Zimmermann, son: Mark Zimmermann and wife Tani, and daughter: Layne Sutton and husband Larry.
