Thatcher, Myrtle E. Green, 1910? -

Nathan W. Thatcher, Sr. (circa 1884-1952) and wife Jennie began the Thatcher Funeral Home in 1912 in Kansas City, Kansas. The Thatcher's had four children: James, Harold, Nathan Jr., and Marion.

Following his father's death, Nathan W. Thatcher, Jr. took over as general manager of Thatcher Funeral Home. He later became the Kansas State Board of Embalming's first black president. Thatcher, Jr. married Myrtle E. Green (b. circa 1910), who was also a Kansas City, Kansas native and Sumner High School graduate. Mrs. Thatcher became a licensed funeral director and worked alongside her husband in the family business. Beyond the funeral home, Myrtle Thatcher was an active community member; she was a long-time member of Pleasant Green Baptist Church, the Kansas Citians and L'Esprit Clubs, and the Alice M. Brown Chapter No. 40 of the Order of the Eastern Star.

Nathan, Jr. and Myrtle Thatcher had one child, Quintelle, born in 1928. After graduating from Sumner High School and attending the University of Kansas, Quintelle worked in community service groups in several states before returning to the family business. Following her father's death in 1980, Quintelle Thatcher Davis took over as general manager of Thatcher Funeral Home, where she worked alongside her mother. Like Myrtle Thatcher, Davis was also a member of the Kansas Citians, as well as the Greater Kansas City Chapter of the Links and Phi Delta Sigma Sorority. Quintelle Thatcher Davis had three children, Robert L. Davis, Jr., Judy Johnson, and Jackie Hams. Upon Quintelle Thatcher Davis's 2007 death, her son Robert Davis took over as Thatcher Funeral Home general manager.
