Myrtle Brown, 77, of Elkview, went home to be with the Lord on April 9, 2018. Myrtle was born on June 9, 1940, to the late William and Twisha Hunt of Elkview.
Preceding her in death were her parents; brothers, Roscoe Shaffer and baby boy Hunt; her husband, John Brown; and daughters, Kimberly Black and Pamela (Bob) Fridley.
She was a barber in Big Chimney for over 30 years and went on to provide in home care for many elderly patients that she loved dearly. Myrtle spent her life serving others and serving the Lord. Even in the days leading up to her passing, she made sure her children were saved and made known that it was her desire for all her grandchildren to be saved as well, so that she would see them again one day.
