Nona Meyerpeter

Nona Meyerpeter, age 72, of Hot Springs, passed away Wednesday, April 27, 2022.

She was born on May 29, 1949, in Pisgah, Iowa, the daughter of Myles Cain and Evelyn Block Cain.  On June 24, 1967, she married the love of her life, Daniel J. Meyerpeter, who passed away on May 10, 2018.  They were married 50 years.  She was also preceded in death by her parents; two brothers, Myles Cain, Jr. and Doug Cain; and one sister, Lori Pummel.

Nona enjoyed family game night, reading and loved going to flea markets, but family waws first of all in her heart.  Her husband, Dan, worked as a farrier for ten years with the Mid-West Thoroughbred horse racing circuit until he and Nona settled their family in Hot Springs.  Once they settled in Hot Springs, she and Dan became the owner-operators of Bull Bayou Marine for over 40 years, making many great friends along the way.  She was a great cook and her family especially loved her spaghetti and turkey with oyster dressing.  She was a wonderful wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend who loved her family with all her heart and will be greatly missed by all that knew and loved her.

She is survived by four daughters, Lisa Huggs and spouse, Dennis, Shelly Caldwell, Jennifer Singleton-Eads and spouse, Josh, and Jami Meyerpeter, all of Hot Springs;  nine grandchildren, Kyle Godwin, Kymberlea (Greg) Griffin, Stephen Smith, Daniel Meyerpeter, Liam Singleton, Emma Eads, C.J. Meyerpeter, Evie Meyerpeter, and Joey Eads; four great-grandchildren, Kycie Godwin, Kam Godwin, Laney Griffin and Gage Griffin; one sister, Jeanette Cain of Council Bluffs, Iowa; several nieces, nephews, extended family members and a host of wonderful friends.

Memorial services will be 10:00AM, Saturday, May 14, 2022, with Bro. George Lynch officiating in the Smith Family Funeral Home Chapel, Hot Springs.
