Priscilla Munch

Munch, Priscilla A.
Priscilla A. Munch was born in Greenfield, MA and lived in Selburne, MA, where her parents, Roger and Lula Peck, were orchardists. Priscilla graduated from Traphagen School of Fashion Design in Manhattan.
In 1950, she and Robert Munch of New Jersey married in Selburne, MA. They built their home of 60 years in Stamford. They raised their family there while Priscilla volunteered in the North Stamford Congregational Church and later taught watercolor painting in Stamford.
Her talent led her to be involved in the Art Society of Old Greenwich, Hudson Valley Art Association, and the Springfield Art Society. Her works were exhibited extensively.
A lover of nature, Priscilla traveled with her husband to Iceland, Europe, Alaska, Canada, and throughout the United States and its national parks and monuments. There she found inspiration for her later works, in which she further expressed her appreciation of the beauty of the world.
She passed away peacefully surrounded by her loving family. She is survived by her husband, Robert Munch; her three children, Gary Munch, Joan Karlsen, and Amanda Kalish; three grandchildren, Guy Karlsen, Jr., Eric Karlsen, and Amanda Kalish; three loving great-grandchildren.
