A serious injury at work forced an early retirement. Myron was known for his calm and respectful demeanor, affording dignity to all, towards everyone he met and worked with in his profession. He later moved back to the family farm in Blackduck, then to Bemidji, and began a new career in Corrections, eventually achieving the rank of Sergeant. Myron began his career as a peace officer in Cavalier County, ND, where he served as a Deputy for eleven years. He passed on his love of these things to both family and friends, especially delighting in spending time with his grandchildren in the boat, annual deer hunting with his wife Beryl and riding with his brother Neil and fellow members of the Norsemen motorcycle club in ND. He spent many hours throughout his lifetime fishing, hunting and riding motorcycles starting at age 13. From an early age, Myron greatly enjoyed being outside. The Wernberg family often spent time helping with farm work in the summers at the Wernberg homestead near Blackduck and lived in several towns in ND over the years where Leander served as an accomplished Superintendent of schools at various locations. Myron was born on April 20,1953 in Grand Forks, ND to Leander and Lorene (Smith) Wernberg of Thompson, ND. Friends are invited to enjoy food, fellowship and especially to share memories of Myron, also known as “Swede” and the “Wizard” among his fellow Norsemen!
