He found gainful employment with The Longshoremen’s Association until 2015. He later returned to work at the Veterans Administration where he remained until sudden passing. Myron enjoyed dancing; playing basketball, and skating; whether on ball #5s in the neighborhood or at a roller rink. As an avid card shark in Atlantic City, Poker was his game of choice and being known as a Whale, he enjoyed all the benefits that accompanied the title.

A gentle and respectful young man, Myron loved fashion and would wear it well … with swag in his step, a kango on his head, and a toothpick in his mouth. God quietly called and he responded on June 23, 2022. As a Veteran, he will be remembered and respected; as a man, he will truly be loved and missed.
