Ivan Myrl Musselman

Ivan Myrl Musselman, born September 16, 1942, went to be with his Lord and Savior on May 31, 2023.  He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Carol (Brumbaugh); his children Myrl Jr. (Rhonda), Lou Ann (Patrick), Donna (Mike), and Carolyn; and his grandchildren Scott (Chi), Stephanie, Kelley (Jeff), Justin, Jonathan, Sean (Kelsie), Ryan (Jensen) and Michaela; and 5 great grandchildren. Also surviving are siblings Galen, Rosanna, Darlene, and Jeannie, as well as many nieces, nephews, and cousins. 

He was preceded in death by his father, Chester “Chet”, mother Ethel (Gardner), and brother David. 

Myrl was a loving father, husband, brother, grandfather, and son, and loved his family with everything he had. Over the years, Myrl did many things: drove race cars, served in the Army Reserves, worked as a truck driver, a logger, and enjoyed working with horses and farming. Myrl was instrumental in the building of the Bedford County Prison Chapel, served as prison chaplain for many years, and as a preacher. He welcomed every possible opportunity to share his love of Jesus Christ and the message of salvation with others.

He loved his family and prayed for all every day. He loved the Lord and put his faith and trust in Him.
