Myrna Helen Pinkerton, born March 19, 1936, went home to be with the Lord on October 29, 2006. Surrounded by friends and family.

Born in Grimsby, England, Myrna came to the U.S. when her mother, Constance Smith, married Walter Shumway, a U.S. WWII soldier. Raised in McMinnville Oregon on her father's farm, she met Allen Pinkerton while attending church in Portland and married him in 1960. Together they raised three boys; Walter, James and Matthew.

Myrna was a nurse for over 40 years. She enjoyed a quirky sense of humor that she passed onto her sons. She will be sorely missed.

There will be a Memorial Service at Westside Presbyterian in West Seattle on November 11, 2006, at 2 p.m.
