Myrlin Marie Withrow 

August 1, 1936 – May 23, 2026

Myrlin Marie (Lively) Withrow was born in Dallas, Texas, to Harley Myrlin Lively and Mabel Burney Lively. She was raised in Sherman, Texas, and later earned her RN certification in Oklahoma, where she met Bobby L. Withrow while he was completing pilot training. The two were married on February 6, 1960, beginning a loving partnership that would span decades.

As a proud Air Force family, Bobby and Myrlin traveled extensively during his military career before eventually settling in Rapid City, South Dakota. In August 2019, Myrlin moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, to be closer to her family.

Myrlin will be remembered for her impeccable sense of fashion, and her remarkable ability to connect with others. Her social spirit followed her wherever she went, and she treasured the relationships she built throughout her life.

She is survived by her three children and their spouses: Leesha Withrow (Mark), Sharon Reistad (Art), and Todd Withrow (Jennifer); her eight grandchildren and their spouses: Christian (Nicole), Kyle, Jonah, Noah, Rachel (Austin), Marcus (Dallas), Hannah (Suhail), and Olivia (Andrew); and her four great-grandchildren: Autumn, Shelby, Oliver, and Zelda. She is also survived by a special niece, Chaney (Hugh), who was like another daughter to her, along with several beloved nieces, nephews, cousins, and dear friends.

Myrlin was preceded in death by her husband, Bobby; her brother, David; and her parents.

A celebration of Myrlin’s life will be held at a future date.
