Myrtle Rasp, age 51, of Jackson, Ohio, went home to be with her Lord after losing her long, hard battle with cancer on Sunday, October 19, 2014 with her family by her side. She was born June 19, 1963 to the late Lindsey and Olive Webb.

Myrtle was a member of Emmanuel Baptist Church. She enjoyed spending time with her family and especially loved the holidays.

She had three special nieces that never left her side, Kelly, Carrie, and Kassie; and a best friend, Lillian Cameron. Myrtle had an endless amount of love and support that came from the entire community.
