Myrna Lee Case passed away peacefully at home on Saturday, June 22, 2024.
Myrna was born on June 6, 1939, in a farmhouse in Carbon County, Montana. She came into this world a fighter at 3 pounds. She went to school in the one room schoolhouse in Clark, Wyoming, and then went to high school in Belfry, Montana, where Myrna was a cheerleader and lettered in band playing the baritone. She also sang in the chorus and was a 4-H member. Myrna graduated in 1957 and then went on to attend Northwest Community College. Myrna was on a dart team that she helped to create for almost 30 years. She spent the last of her working life at Blair’s Market in the deli. She had a great love of Nascar, with Dale Ernhardt and Dale Ernhardt Jr. being her favorite drivers, but she also enjoyed watching all sports. One of Myrna’s favorite colors was red, and she would like everyone to wear something red to the service. Myrna was always quick with a smile and will be missed by those who knew her and loved her.
Myrna was preceded in death by her mother Ina Badura and stepdad Bob Badura, and father Marvin Harkin. She is survived by sisters Loretta, Alberta and Delphine (Michael), and brother Randy Harkin; children Robert Tucker, Donna Dillon, Kim (Charlie) Bowers, Jeff (Iesha) Tucker, Charles Tucker and Ami Burns; grandchildren Courtney Underwood, Anthony (Michelle) Schoonover, Benny Underwood, Derek (Brenda) Schoonover, Tucker Lynn (Will) Hotchkiss, Les Dillon, Blaine (Amy) Tucker, Tyrel (Mindy) Tucker, Jessica Tucker, Sahvanna (Jalayna) Lewis, and Joseph (Juliana) Hernandez, Victoria Tucker and Jakob Tucker; and 19 great-grandchildren
