Myrtle I. McKenzie, 67, of Gulliver, died February 1, 2007, at Marquette General Hospital in Marquette.

She was born May 27, 1939, in Manistique, the daughter of Martin and Mildred (nee Wood) Holmberg. She attended Manistique area schools.

On December 5, 1959, she married Antone "Tony" E. McKenzie in Carp River, where they lived for a time. Together they later lived and worked in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, moving to the Manistique area in 1998.

Mrs. McKenzie enjoyed craftwork, traveling, going to the casino, and was an avid Green Bay Packers fan. Most important to her was the time she spent with her family, especially her husband and twin sister, Marie, friends said.
