Dolores (Dee) Marie Myers Obituary (1929

Dolores (Dee) Marie Myers was born to Yannis Negas (John Naggas) and Effie Ann Woodson in El Monte, California on 30 December 1929 and passed away on 20 December 2022 just shy of her 93rd birthday. As an only child, Dee was adored by her parents and had fond memories with the Woodson family from Missouri. Since her father John was from Greece, she wasn’t able to meet her family in Zakinthos until later in life. However, she cherished her time spent with them. She was very proud of her Greek heritage and family. Something not many people knew about Dee was that she was accomplished at the piano. She enjoyed gardening, knitting, and crafting. She carried on the Masonic tradition of her family and was a Jobs Daughter. At the age of 23 she joined The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and enjoyed her membership there. Dee was preceded in death by her husband Quirl Myers (d. 2007) and is survived by her children Quirl Bradlee Myers (Carmen), Tanya Cousino, Dawn Nelson (Kim), and Cherie Hansen (David). Her greatest desire was to be with her family again. Dee loved watching her 13 grandchildren grow and loved them very much: Sean, Dolores (Christopher), Jenny (Brian), Wendy, Jordan (Kacie), Micah (Jessica), Abigail (Kevin), Jacob, Sierra (Cameron), Ben (Kylee), Emily, Kaela, and Sara (TJ). She also received a lot of joy in late life from seeing pictures and videos of her nearly 20 great grandchildren who lived near and far. The family would like to thank Legacy Assisted Living of Provo for their loving care of Dee for the past seven years. We would also like to thank Jesi of Renew Home Health and Hospice for her kind and gentle care of Dee as she lived her final days. We will miss her greatly and have the hope to see her again someday. Graveside memorial services will be held at 10:00 a.m., Friday, July 7, 2023 at the East Lawn Memorial Hills Cemetery , 4800 North 650 East , Provo, Utah.Condolences may be expressed to the family at www.bergmortuary.com.
