Myrtle was born on December 31, 1932, at 8 p.m. in the family home to Bertie Hobert and Ethel Marie (Hill) Spoon. She was the tenth born of 12 children, seven boys, and five girls. At the age of 24, she married Leo C. Mitchell of Lucas, IA.

She was saved at the age of 12 and received the baptism at the age of 14 and the baptism of the Holy Ghost at the age of 16. She served God from then until she couldn’t get to church and for a while, she didn’t always live as close to God as she should have. Whenever there was trouble she always took it to God.
