RUSSELL, Myrtle Irene: Myrtle Irene Russell was born on October 6th1940 in Dodsland, Saskatchewan, the second child of George and Janet Daniels who farmed in the Plenty area of Western Saskatchewan. Throughout Myrtle's life, family was always the very most important part of her life and in the end it was the single greatest accomplishment of her being: she was selfless when it came to her family.

Between 1966 and 1969 there was an interruption to banking where they farmed together with Myrtle's parents near Plenty, Saskatchewan. After Ron's retirement from the bank in 1998 they continued to live on an acreage in Saskatoon until 2004 when they moved to Okanagan Falls, and subsequently in 2011 to Penticton, B.C. In September of 2011, Myrtle was diagnosed with breast cancer and continued to live each day fully until her death on March 24th, 2015.
