men's fine clothing at Penelope's and in later years, after moving to Thunder Valley on Sugar Creek, she rekindled her love of antique's, as a "hunter", dealer and small shop owner in various antique malls in Carmel and Crawfordsville. Her ways of intertwining humor, life lesson quips and Catholicism are famous among friends and family; all will say that no one wrote a more eloquent note both in penmanship and content. A favorite blessing: "Blessed are they who can laugh at themselves for they shall never cease to be amused" framed in her creekside home as a reminder that humor mixed with gratefulness is a good cocktail. While Fritz tended his vegetable garden, she cultivated a world of native Indiana wildflowers at Sugar Creek. Virginia Blue Bells, Firepink, Ferns, Trillium, Jack-in-the-pulpit, Blue Indigo Baptisia and Daisies are among favorites and part of her flower language. She is preceded in death by her parents, husband, Fritz Otto Meyer, sister, Janet Clark Deitschel (Tom) and brother, David Clark. Her remaining family includes sons; Fred Otto Meyer, Philip A. Meyer (Cathy Hurst) and Karl F. Meyer (Barbara Bright) and 5 grandchildren, 2 step grandchildren and 1 great granddaughter. In found reflections she noted the following: The person who prays is one who has the courage to stretch out her arms and to let herself be led. After Jesus had given Peter the commission to care for his people, he said: I tell you most solemnly, when you were young you put on your own belt and walked where you liked; but when you grow old you will stretch out your hands, and somebody else will put a belt around you and take you where you would rather not go. (John 21: 18) She will be missed by the many whose existence she touched in her extraordinary journey through this life.
