Della Myers, longtime foster grandmother in Kansas City, Kansas, dies at 80 Bill Lukitsch, The Kansas City Star
Apr. 11 Nearly every school day, Della Myers would rise early to catch the public city bus over to W.A. White Elementary where the children knew her as Grandmother Della.
For more than 13 years, Myers worked as a volunteer foster grandmother with at-risk and special needs children in the Kansas City Kansas Public Schools system. It was a job she treasured and what she was most proud of during the time she was able to serve, said John Myers, her only son and the elder of her two children.
