I knew Myron mostly from his days at Corps HQ, though later our paths crossed occassionally. He was a good man. This is sad news. I pray for Myron, and for his family and friends, and send sympathy.

Angie, my prayers and thoughts are with you and your family. I worked with Myron on many differnt projects over the past 30 years. Our paths would cross periodically for brief periods of time. I will always remember his enthusiasm, good humor, dedication, and our discussions about the state of the world, family, friends, stocks, and sports. When I retired from the Corps in 2000 and started consulting Myron was the one who gave me my forst job; for that I will always be grateful. With deepest sympathy.

Dear Angie,

My heartfelt sympathy to you and your family. I first met Myron in 1977 when I spent 3 months in OCE. We carpooled to work and played golf together. He was just taking up the game, which was not yet up to the skill level of his tennis game. A great friend, full of infectious good cheer. May he rest in peace with God.

Angie,



I knew and worked with Myron in Philadelphia in the 70's. My recent contact was through e-mail. He was always quick with a smile, and his machine gun laugh was identifiable wherever he was. Although it has been a long time, I will miss not being able to hear him again.

Dear Angie and family,

I was very sad to hear of Myron's passing. I worked as his assistant for several years in Philadelphia at the start of my career. He was a joy to work with and a true professional. His delightful sense of humor and infectious laugh will always be with those he touched. My deepest sympathy to you all.

To family and friends, I am saddened to hear of Myron's death. Mo is unforgettable and will live in all our memories. I worked with him in the 70's at HQ USACE here in DC, before he moved to Savannah and I moved to San Francisco. He was a great person to know, and always had a cheerful and funny comment (or two!) to lighten up the day.

I hope you can find comfort in recalling fond memories of many good times with him. My thoughts and deepest sympathy to all of you at this time of loss,
