To All the Crowbridges,

I just found about your mother, Muriel. Please except my heart felt sympathy. Your mother was a beautiful women and lady. She was so refined and dignified, a true example to follow. Aunt Muriel never forgot us at Cristmas, always a cheerful greeting card. She was a true kindred spirit that will never leave but lives on in our memories. Gods blessings be with all the Crowbridge family.
My deepest regards,
Julie Crowbridge

I will remember Muriel for her kind good nature, always happy to see you with a smile on her face, I especially admired her good eye for junk at the St Vincent store's, which i think Jude has inherited this trait!

Jeanne,

I know how much you loved Muriel and how many laughs you shared with the Tammy's about how great she was.

She was a woman who was loved and respected. She loved with no pre-qualifications.

Keep your great memories in your heart, it eases the pain and helps you smile.

Love you,

Sheila

Our prayers and thoughts are with the Crowbridge family. Jeanne I have wonderful memories of your family. Growing up and having sleep overs at your house were so much fun. Muriel would always let us stay up late and have good donuts for us in the morning. Remember your memories of happiness you shared with your mother & it will always be a part of all of you. Sending warm hugs love and blessings.

Muriel was a "Mom" to many, many others besides the five kids she bore. She always opened her home - and her heart - to others and delighted in spreading joy. One of my favorite memories is of her leaving her office at the Post Office each day at noon to go shopping for treasures at Boston Store and Gimbels. Neither rain, sleet or snow kept Muriel from a good sale! It was always fun to see what she'd come back with - a bag that she would tuck under her desk but pull out with a grin to show off her latest find. I know that she and Louis are happy to be together again and laugh about their adventures! Go ahead - wear the sassy shoes, Muriel!
