To this union two children were born, a son, Carroll E. and a daughter, Corene Ann (Tootie). Myrl enjoyed many years of owning and operating restaurants in Iowa and Missouri. Besides working hard, she enjoyed her family, shopping, playing cards, dressing up, taking her family out to eat, and the Chicago Cubs. In most recent years she couldn’t wait to get to the Senior Center in Clarion for a good game of ‘500’. Myrl is survived by one daughter, Tootie Hall and husband, Tom; 10 grandchildren; 19 great-grandchildren; three brothers, Melvin Mosher and Robert Mosher, Jr., both of Clarion, and Donald Mosher of Eagle Grove. She was preceded in death by her parents; husband; one son, Carroll; two sisters, Mildred Dahlgren and Velma Caquelin; and three brothers, Eldon, Gareth and Kenneth.
