Mrs. Elmore was born May 7, 1937 in Geneva County to the late Tilman Reece Register and Carolyn Knight Register Mulkey. Myernette was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, and friend. She was a member of First Baptist Church Slocomb.

She worked with the Russell Corporation after the closing of Van Heusen. Mrs. Elmore also enjoyed substitute teaching in the Slocomb School System. She loved her family dearly and enjoyed preparing Sunday lunch for them for many years.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her brothers: Wayne and Wilmer Register; and sister, Margaret Hundley.

Survivors include her husband of 63 years, Harrell Elmore; daughter and son-in-law, Sheila and Ken Grimes; two granddaughters: Carolyn Crawford and husband Radney, Kendall Grimes and fiancé Brandon Wallace; one great-granddaughter, Emma Crawford, as well as the anxious arrival of twin great-grands in August.

The family would like to express their sincere appreciation to the staff at Extendicare Rehabilitation and Nursing Home and Kindred Home Health for the love and care they so freely gave during her extended illness.
