So sorry to hear about Muriel's passing. I had just asked my mom about her when I was out for Christmas in PG (she hadn't yet heard) She and Guy were the best neighbours one could've hoped for. Even though looking back on it we only lived next door to each other for about 10 years ... that's an eternity to a kid; it seemed to me like they had always been our neighbours! Even though I had not seen her for many years, I will always remember her fondly as someone who was always there for us, including one very dark period in our lives when her and Guy's kindness and concern were appreciated more than I could ever convey. I will always remember her as a kind, gracious, and caring lady who everyone liked. A life well lived indeed!
My deepest condolences to the Young and Russell families.

I remember Muriel with great fondness. She and Guy took my girlfriend and I into their home in the 1970s when we arrived on their doorstep in Prince George after hitchhiking around North America. I recall with gratitude Guy, David and Doug rescuing me when my pickup truck broke down on the highway between Prince George and McBride, BC in the middle of winter. They made sure it was in good working order before I drove it back to New Brunswick the following spring. My condolences to the whole family.

So very sorry to hear of Muriel's passing. She was one special woman. I especially remember my trip to Florida when her and Guy were staying with my aunt Vella. Great people for sure. Please let us know when a service in NB will be. Take care and stay safe.
