Let the family know you care by sharing this tribute
Birdie Lorene “Lorene” Myers, 99, of Blue Springs, Missouri, passed away on March 31, 2026.
Lorene was born on January 16, 1927, in Carthage, Missouri, to Barney E. Rowe and Gladys (Skeleton) Rowe.
She was united in marriage to William E. Myers in February 1965, and together they shared 33 years of love and companionship until his passing. Lorene dedicated many years of service to Goodyear, retiring on June 1, 1983.
A proud and active member of the Order of the Eastern Star, Lorene was initiated on April 30, 1981, at Ellestar Chapter No. 565 in Akron, Ohio. In May 2001, she transferred her membership to Belleview Chapter No. 122 in Fort McCoy, Florida, where she remained devoted and engaged.
Lorene was preceded in death by her beloved husband, William E. Myers. She will be deeply missed by her extended family and many friends whose lives she touched.
Lorene will be inurned at Bushnell National Cemetery in Bushnell, Florida, at a later date.
After a life beautifully lived,
She entered a garden of peace—
Where all is whole, all is gentle,
And love forever grows.
Lorene was my Beloved Aunt. We shared many happy times at my home in Texas where she came to visit with my family and my Parent’s, Wayne and Louise Baum, on more than 1 occasion. She came for a visit one Christmas and I think she came for their 50th Wedding Anniversary. Party. Lorene and my Mom (her sister) had a wonderful visit when Mom went to visit Lorene in Florida after my Dad passed. Mom had many fond memories of Lorene as well. Lorene and I shared many happy times when I visited her in Blue Springs, MO. Lorene was like a “Bonus Mom” to me after I lost my Mother. I remember visiting her and her first husband in Ohio when I was a young girl. I remember playing in the snow with their dog. I hadn’t seen snow prior to that visit, so it was special! After I retired and was able to travel, I went to visit Lorene in Blue Springs a number of times. Lorene told me many stories about her early years that I did not know. When my Aunt Lorene needed help, I did not hesitate. Lorene was an amazing woman. I will always miss her and cherish the times we spent together. May you forever rest in that peaceful garden you told me you were seeing on my last visit. I love you so very much.
