“Now, let me tell you something…………” 2010 Gala That’s how Myrtle Rapp, seemingly, always started her statements. So, let us tell you something about the lady we loved so much and gave us all more than any of us could have ever imagined. As her grandkids, we remember her as “the best grandma in the world” who would spend “countless nights around the old chopping block spreading her many words of wisdom.” She was “the sweetest, most caring person in the world” and “words couldn’t describe the way she had influence over so many lives”. She was “full of Tiger Spirit” and “Gillespie Bridge’s own celebrity.” As her children, we recall, “You need to establish the difference between your family, friends and coworkers. Years later I realized what she said, family are friends, friends are family and her coworkers and patients were friends and family, too.” “She was beautiful, generous and always sharing” and “Mom was so many different things.” “My wonderful wife loved to garden, can the produce and cook. She was the best cook in the Midwest. She never learned to swim or ride a bike due to living on the farm. She became a good water skier and snow skier. She would ride a motorcycle with me going 100 miles an hour, thru the Rocky Mountains and Old Mexico. She was always prepared for snow trips, river trips on the Mississippi, Missouri, and Arkansas Rivers. And, you had to take what she had prepared whether you wanted to or not. She loved her kids, grandsons, and great grandsons. If Myrtle knew you, she loved you and always had a helping hand for everyone. She talked to her flowers and her garden plants as she was sitting in the garden working with them in her night gown!! She loved life. Thanks Myrtle for a great life. I love you. -Billy” We thank you all for honoring our best friend and for continuing to support an effort that was so very important to her. The Rapp Family A year in review 2010 17
