Myron Leroy was born on Jan. 5, 1958, in Williston, ND the son of Eldin and Frances (Thomas) Johnson. He grew up and attended schools in East Fairview. After school Myron started working in the oil field, starting in the worm's corner and working his way up to driller. Myron started consulting in the oil field and he flew all over the world doing consulting. Then he started doing construction and siding with his uncle. They were working in Utah when he met Patty Elquist and they were married on Feb. 16, 1980, in Elko, NV. To this union they had three children, Brandon, Cory, and Nicole. After the marriage they lived in Morgan, UT until moving to Fairview, MT in November 1980. In 1982, they moved back to Utah, later returning to Fairview where Myron was working on the oil rigs.

The siding company Myron was working for went out of business and they moved back to Fairview. Myron and Patty divorced in March 1988. Myron married Doris Freeman.
