Ionia Sentinel – Tuesday, 5 July 1955
Dr. Dean Wentworth Myers, 81, retired eye surgeon, died Saturday in Ann Arbor 
after a long illness.  Dr. Myers was a native son of Ionia County who rose to 
national prominence in his profession as a medical practitioner and pioneer in 
eye surgery.  Of his 52 years in the profession, all but four were spent in 
Ann Arbor.  From 1903 to 1907 he practiced in Grand Rapids.

He was the son of Mr. and Mrs. David Myers, and was born on the farm in North 
Plains Township where they lived, near the Brad Hayes farm.  He was a Fellow 
of the American College of Surgeons, a former president of the Ann Arbor city 
council, chairman of the Washtenaw County Democratic committee, and active in 
community and service clubs.

He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Eleanor Sheldon Myers, and a daughter, 
Dorothy Louise Myers.  Funeral services will be held Wednesday at the First 
Presbyterian church in Ann Arbor, with burial there in Forest Hills cemetery.
