An active member of his community, he served as Port Vue American Legion Commander for three years. He is a 25-year member of the Port Vue Vigilant Hose Company No. 1, a member of the ambulance service and was a member of the Port Vue Blue Rock Club.  

He served as a borough police officer for 22 years, with eight of those years as chief. Myers served his country in Vietnam and received a Bronze Star.
