Norma Muenz Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers from Sep. 22 to Sep. 23, 2005.

MUENZ
NORMA ANN (BRYAN)
Much too suddenly on Sunday, September 18, 2005 at the age of 66. Originally of Carnegie, lately enjoying retirement with her beloved husband, John L. Muenz, in the Villages, FL. She was born on Monday, December 26, 1938 in Pittsburgh, PA. Daughter of the late Thomas and Mary (Wittas) Bryan. She was a graduate of the Carnegie Institute of Technology (now CMU). She was a teacher at Bishop Canevin Catholic High School for 25 years in the Business/Secretarial Department. A testament to her faith, Norma lived her life as a servant - a life spent joyfully in the company of good friends and lovingly embracing her family with devotion and a playful spirit. In addition to her husband of 46 years, John, she is survived by two sons, David J. (Kathleen) Muenz of Cincinnati, OH and Kurt L. (Susan) Muenz of Franklin Park; 5 grandchildren, Kristen, Ellen, John, Kate and Mark Muenz; brother, Thomas (Peggy) Bryan of Mt. Laurel, NJ; aunt, Anne Wittas (George) Skalyo of Scott Twp.; cousin, Joyce (Jim) Skalyo of Carnegie; and many nieces, nephews and other cousins. Friends are invited to call 7-9pm Thursday & 2-4 & 7-9pm Friday at the LEO J. HENNEY FUNERAL HOME, 323 Second Ave., Carnegie www.leohenneyfuneralhome.com. Funeral Mass on Saturday in St. Ignatius Church of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Parish at 9:30am with Rev. Al Adams officiating. Interment will follow in Mt. Olivet Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, contributions made to the Catholic Charities, in Norma's honor, will be gratefully accepted.

To the Muenz Family:

My deepest condolences. Mrs. Muenz was my homeroom teacher at Canevin Catholic from 1986-1990. As such, she was my first high school teacher and was very kind to a student who knew no one those first few weeks. I have always been grateful. She will be missed.

To The Muenz Family,

My deepest sympathy goes out to you. I graduated from Canevin in 1989. Mrs. Muenz was one of my favorite teachers and the skills that she taught me carry through to this day. Most important, her class was one of fun and laughter. She allowed me to water all of the plants in her classroom and even now, it is something that I enjoy! These are memories that will last a lifetime. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Grew up in the same neighborhood as Norma.

She taught secretarial skills to my sister at Canevin.

My sympathy to her family. You will be in my prayers.

Dear Jack and Family,

We were saddened to hear of the death of Norma. I worked with her at Canevin for many years and shared a long list of events in her life through the Christmas cards she sent. How she loved her family and especially the grandchildren!! What a wonderful, fun-loving person she was. She was a wonderful example to the children she taught. We are sorry that we cannot pay our respects in person as we are out-of-town. Please know that you and your family will be remembered in our prayers.

Dear Muenz Family,

I am sorry to read about the loss of Mrs. Muenz. I recently saw her at the funeral of my aunt, Mary Ann Stewart, but I was not able to talk to her. I wanted to say thank you to her for teaching me to type and connecting me with a fabulous job at the Pittsburgh Press. This job got me through college. Although she may not have remembered teaching me or the job that she got for me, she had a huge impact on my future and the education and jobs that were available to me.

Please know that I and my family are praying for you.

We were so very sorry to learn that the good Lord took Norma to be with him at such a young age. She was a very beautiful, lovely, sweet, quiet lady. We know all of you will miss her very much. God be with. With our deepest sympathy, Ernie and Ruth Meszaros, Edinboro, PA.
