Muriel was a wonderful modern psychoanalyst. She was my control analyst when I was at the School for Modern Psychoanalysis. Extremely helpful 5 years that continue to shore me up in mental health and life successes. Thank you, Muriel.

Words do not express the profundity of the loss, but many bon mots, and impactful phrases from this brilliant mind will live on and light the paths of those who are fortunate to receive them. Sincerest condolences to the family, friends, colleagues, patients, aides, and all who came to be blessed in the knowing of this magnificent woman.

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.
