Mary Ann Myers, seamstress, mom
Even though her primary job was as a seamstress at the Palm Beach company, Mary Ann Myers often worked three jobs just to see that her youngest child had the best growing up, said daughter Dottie Ostendorf.
"She babysat, she took in ironing - just anything she could do to make ends meet," Mrs. Ostendorf said. "She was a very unselfish lady."
Already a mother of two grown sons, she was almost 40 when her daughter was born. Mrs. Myers, of Latonia, died Tuesday at St. Elizabeth Medical Center South. She was 92.
Mrs. Myers was a devout Catholic and member of St. Benedict Church in Covington, her daughter said. She was a Kentucky Colonel and member of the Latonia American Legion.
She was also a member of the Covington Senior Citizens.
Her husband, Martin Myers preceded her in death. A son, Payl W. Myers, died in 1980.
"She was a fun-loving lady. And very loving," Mrs. Ostendorf said. "I guess that sums up her 92 years.
"We were very lucky to have her that long. She was quite a lady."
