It is with profound sadness that we announce the passing of Myrna Guadalupe Piton on May 30, 2025, at the age of 70. Born on January 26, 1955, Myrna was a cherished mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, whose vibrant spirit and unwavering love will continue to resonate in the hearts of those who knew her. 

Myrna dedicated her life to her family, embodying the role of a nurturing mother and grandmother. Her greatest joy came from gathering her family together, especially during the cherished Thanksgiving Day celebrations, where the warmth of her cooking filled the home with love and laughter. It was in these moments that Myrna shined brightest, creating lasting memories that her family will hold dear. 

Beyond her devotion to family, Myrna found solace in the simple pleasures of life, often seen sitting outside with a cup of coffee in hand, lovingly tending to her cherished plants. She embraced every opportunity to dance, bringing joy and light to every gathering, an embodiment of happiness and the life of the party. 

A lover of chance and excitement, Myrna took great pleasure in gambling and looked forward to her visits to L'Auberge in Lake Charles, Louisiana, where she created many unforgettable memories with friends and family. Her legacy of love, laughter, and joyful spirit will live on in the hearts of those she leaves behind.
