Muriel D. Diamond

Muriel came into my life late in her life. She lit up the room with her liveliness and generosity. She coached me to better public speaking and contributed her energy and passion to help foster children. I am so grateful to have known her.

Muriel took me to my first play when I was a very young girl in Chicago. She and my Mother were first cousins. I have always admired Muriel and her parents. So happy I was able to visit her two years ago, and she was as elegant as ever.
May she rest in peace.

Muriel was my favorite relative. Her zest for life, enthusiasm, theatre savvy, great listening skills and compassion made her a wonderful human being. We are all richer for knowing her. May her memory be a blessing.

Muriel hired me to write some of her plays years ago and we became close friends. She was a spectacular actress and writer and I cherished her warmth, kindness, humor, graciousness - and there will never be enough words to capture her. I dearly loved her and will always miss her.

Muriel was my step-aunt. She entered my family when she married my uncle, the widower of my father's sister who had died at 51, leaving two children. Not only was Muriel a warm and loving wife to Ira Bach and a supportive step-mother for John and Callie, but she also reached out to the rest of the family. This included my grandmother, who had lost two of her four children within a year and who lived until she was nearly 100. Later after she had married Josef Diamond and moved to Seattle,...

An overwhelming sadness fills my heart to know that we have all lost such an amazing, gifted friend. An artist herself, she believed in me and my talent and gifted me the money to record my CD. I was Josef Diamond's personal assistant for 16 years, but was treated like a family member. I will always cherish her friendship and her love of the arts and life. God speed, Muriel.

To the family of Muriel Diamond may God give you comfort and peace by means of prayer - Philipians 4:6,7. My deepest sympathy

We are so thankful to have had you in our lives for so long, cousin Muriel. Your energy, kindness and enthusiasm for life was inspirational and I know my daughter, Shelby, will take a piece of you with her wherever life takes her. You will always be with us. With love, Cousin Kate Warshauer Maxwell, Abram Maxwell and cousin Shelby Maxwell

The loss of a memorable woman. May she rest in peace.
