Miriam was born in the Blackfoot area on May 31, 1920 to Nicholas and Miriam Vallentgoed.

Miriam will be sorely missed by: her sister, Ruth (Bill); sister-inlaw, Angie (Larry); brother-in-law, Fred and numerous nieces and nephews.

Skinner for his compassionate service and his kind assistance throughout; to Noreen Williamson for her music and to the choir; to the eulogist and the urn bearer, Darren Vallentgoed; to the Mervin ladies for a delicious lunch; for the many cards, telephone calls and donations received in her memory; and to McCaw Funeral Service for their thoughtfulness and their professional handling throughout.
