Not sure what to say?

I still think of Muriel when I'm driving thru Cranford. Also at Christmas when I decorate for the holidays and unwrap the little Christmas candle holder she gave me many years ago . She and I both loved the cold weather and shared that same thing. Rest in peace Muriel.

So funny how things happen. I was only thinking of Muriel the other day; she just popped into my head and then today I received this legacy reminder. Rest in peace Muriel and I always remembered how we both shared our enjoyment of the colder weather over the hot humid stuff :) Hard to believe its been so long ago that we kidded about things like that over coffee. I wish your family happy memories of you - that's what keeps our loved ones alive in our hearts forever.

Carolyn and Family:

My sympathy and prayers go out to all of you at this time. May God grant her eternal rest and let perpetual light shine on her.

Sincerely,
Mary (Ortuso) Zago

I was sad to hear of Muriel's death. I had the good fortune of working with Muriel at United Counties. I was a young kid and she was a tremendous role model to me. I remember the silliest things, her narrow feet but always great shoes! Her witty nicknames for people that bugged us. Great pride in going a good job. Her tremendous love for and pride of her daughters. All these years later I still have a beautiful decanter she gave me as a wedding present. I could never part with it.
I am...

A "one of a kind" lady for sure! Worked with Muriel and long after she left the Y, the memories of her humor, wisdom and kindness linger on. I still think of her when I see or smell the fragrance "Emeraude" by Coty. That was her signature fragrance in the office.
God bless you up there in heaven Muriel and until we meet again.......

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Let good memories fill your heart.

Moira, your whole church family is praying for you, and all of your family. May you know and experience God's peace in this valley of the shadow of death. May the Lord truly be your shepherd in this time.
