She was a retired D.C. Public Schools educator.
Myrtle leaves to cherish her memory her husband of 53 years, Eugene; two children, Erik Eugene and Maria Denise; three grandchildren, Ariya, Amani, and Aaron; a twin sister, Mary Belton; four nephews; three nieces; many great-nieces and nephews, cousins and friends.
