Happy 100th Birthday Myra!
Myra spent her birthday surrounded by the people she loves most.
Myra Owens married when she was 28 years old and had 3 children. 2 of the children are twins. When asked if she had always wanted twins she said " I didn't really think about having twins but I always thought that it would be so cute to make them match!". Her oldest child, Adaline, is 67 years old and has 5 children. Her twins are Jason, and Ellie, and they are both married and have 3 kids each. All of her children and grand-children were at her 100th birthday party.
After high school Myra went to college in New York before she got her first job as an intern for Sax Fifth Avenue. She was intern for 1 year then she climbed the ladder until 13 years later she was a designer and had worked with Kate Spade and more. Myra's work has been featured in many fashion shows, most importantly Fashion Week in New York. When asked if she was set on becoming a fashion designer growing up she said " No I actually wanted to go a very different path but once I got into fashion I knew what I needed to do.".
When Myra was 63 years old she had retired and wanted to spend more time with her children and had a desire to travel. She loved everywhere she went but she said this, "I loved going everywhere but my favorite places were Miami, Paris, and Italy.". Her children also enjoyed getting to spend time with Myra in different places because their mom used to be gone so much because of her job.
Myra loves a lot of thing but when asked what she loves most she said " I love to spend time with my grand-children and I really like to rad." Myra has read a lot of books in her lifetime but she did say this " I didn't always like to read but you just gotta try really hard to get into it and sometimes it clicks and sometimes it doesn't."
