She "is" a beautiful soul that will shine eternal into the next life forever being the kind person and wonderful friend to my mother, Virginia Greer, of Hampstead NH. I will always remember her fashion shows she had every year with class as was her way with everything she touch. May my Lord watch out your loved ones until you see them again.
Sincerely,
Michelle Gavin-Torres

Ms Murkison would always say something funny and would make me laugh. She always showed a good sense of humor. One year she asked me to participate in a Valentine's Day fashion show she hosted, and of course I obliged her. Ms Catherine was truly a delight. My condolences and blessings to the family.
