Obituary

On December 27, 1939, a beautiful baby girl was born to Geneva

Ward Edwards and Meshach Edwards in Brazoria Texas whom they

named Myrtle Mae.

She enjoyed her early life with many relatives and friends in Oakland

Community. She was a domestic housekeeper in the Brazosport area

for over forty years. She was an avid student of the Word of God and

an active member of the West Side Church of Christ until her

death. She participated in many ladies’ bible studies and she

supported church functions with her delicious cooking. She is

remembered for making her cornbread dressing and delicious tea-

cakes. She also enjoyed traveling with family (mom never met a

stranger), cross-stitch, working puzzles and holiday cooking festivities,

often teaching four generations of her girls.

Myrtle married Jack Austin Jr. on June 6, 1959, in Angleton, Texas and

enjoyed sixty plus years of marriage. To this union, four children were

born, three daughters; Lenora Barber (Carlton), of Richwood, TX,

Delores Parson of Bay City, TX and Sharon Jenkins of Lewisville, TX

and one son, Jack Austin, III (Vanessa), of Iowa Colony,TX.

Myrtle passed away Friday, November 29, 2019 at her residence.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Meshach and Geneva

Edwards, six brothers, three sisters and one great-great grandson.

Myrtle will be missed by a host of nieces, nephews, other relatives and

friends.

A Tribute To Mom Order of Service

You make the sunshine on a cloudy day

When I’m sick you kiss the pain away

Your tender voice took away my fears

Your hand that wiped away my tears

The love you give so honest and pure

Keeping me forever safe and secure

You make the flowers bloom in the spring

It was you who fixed my broken wing

Mom, because of you I know love

My guardian angel from above
