Annika Christina Myers Obituary (1994 - 2004)

Annika Christina Myers OGDEN - Our beautiful happy ray of sunshine has broken forth from mortality on earth to a heavenly realm above early Saturday morning. True to her cheerful personality, Annika was born with a smile and joyful glow about her on a beautiful, sunny and warm morning, the last day of June in 1994. The sky was it's brightest blue, just like her Swedish blue eyes. She is the cherished daughter of Shaun and Christina Lonn Myers. Annika was blessed with a zest for life and an endearing passion for family, friends, animals and nature. She loves her fluffy cheerful little puppy, Marshmallow; her active, furry little bunny, Smooches; her gentle dog, Jaffa; all the neighborhood cats and especially horses. She loves to swing in the family's big tree swing, ride her bike, sing songs, make movies, swim, ski, ride horses and play with her many friends. Her favorite colors are yellow and blue because they are the colors of the Swedish flag and they make her happy. Annika is an excellent fourth grade student at Polk Elementary School. She loves her teacher, Mrs. Lynda Allen and all of her classmates. She is an honorary member of the Coldwater "Shoot-out" Gang and the National Funeral Directors Association. Annika loves her Heavenly Father and her Savior, Jesus Christ. She is an active member of the Taylor Canyon Ward Primary of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Annika has an infinite capacity to love and influence the lives of many people. She leaves us with a legacy of faith, hope, endurance and love, with a desire to be our best and to live each moment of everyday to the fullest. Surviving are her father and mother, Shaun and Christina Myers; her sisters and brothers, Kjerstin, Katarina, Zack, Daniel and Thomas, all of Ogden; grandparents, Richard and Gloria Myers, Joe and Linda Boyd, all of North Ogden; Sven-Goran and Elsa Lonn, Vislanda, Sweden; two great-grandmothers, Roseann Myers and Annette Jorgensen; 11 uncles and aunts, and 15 cousins of Utah, California and Sweden. Annika fought a good fight. She finished the course. She has kept the faith. Our heartfelt thanks to all the medical and health professionals who so compassionately cared for Annika.
