The way I heard it is Myra Koontz had been stepping out with Orville Monroe.
Someone noticed Orville's hearse out parked in the cemetery every Thursday
night from ten till midnight. Orville claims he was thinking of offering a
new "Layaway Plan" and he wanted Myra's input. He insisted that he was dead
serious about the plan but Myra was dead set against it.. I also heard that
Orville would always pack some sandwiches and beer when they went to the
cemetery, but Myra got a little unnerved when Orville kept asking her to
"pass me another cold one."..I hear it was getting so serious that Orville
even proposed one night. He was very romantic and got down on his knee and
said, "Myra, how would you like to be buried in the Monroe family plot some
day? "I also heard that Orville had been giving Myra flowers every week too,
but apparently she finally broke things off when she found a ribbon in the
last bouquet that said "Grandma".
Now that's the story about Myra Koontz that I heard. Far be it from me to
gossip, but that is what I heard.
