Myone Stueber Ehler was born in Little Rock, Arkansas on November 5th, 1924. The only child of Roy Edward Stueber and Henrietta Wolters Stueber, both deceased. Her father founded 555 Tire and Service Company, the first “automobile filing station” in the nation which evolved into a landmark business of many successful ventures. He was known as an “Arkansas Business Builder”.

Myonne attended Lindewood University, St. Charles, MO and graduated from Norhtwestern University with a BA. In her sixties she received her Master’s degree in Art from the University of Southern California.
She had “wings on her heels” and traveled the world as an ingénue with her Mother and later with her friends and adult children. She loved art and there was never a museum that she did not see or appreciate. Her interests were playing bridge, daily tennis into her mid eighties and was an argyle sock knitter, “par excellence”.
Myonne will be remembered for her love of fashion, which was evident in her style and her youthful inspiring attitude. She had a “million dollar smile”. She had “joie de vivre”. Her heart was kind, she was generous with charitable giving and gave support and love to friends in need during their illness.
Myonne was a Little Rock, Arkansas Debutante, member of Tri Delta Sorority, The Little Town Club, Santa Barbara, CA., Birnam Wood Golf Club, Montecito, CA. and Santa Barbara Museum of Art.
“Grandmama” is survived by her grandchildren Jeff, Todd, Brian and Tim Nance. Phillip IV, and Owen Scheid. Evan and Landis Meyer. Brittney, Wyatt and Erica Ehler. She was also blessed with great-grandson’s Ryan and Brett Nance and Great-great-grandchildren; Joseph, Makenzie, Madison, Matthew, Addison and Sydney Nance.
The family would like to extend their deepest appreciation and gratitude for the service of sisters Virginia Robertson (8 yrs.) and Gloria Santiago (3 yrs), together, who tenderly and patiently treated and cared for Myonne with kindness and respect. They truly loved Mother and their care lengthened her life and allowed her to stay in her home. Many heartfelt thanks to her physicians, Dr. William Vollero and Dr. Christopher Thrash.
