So sorry to hear of Muriel's passing. My first recollection of was when I was about 4 or 5 years old, after my father passed away. My mom and I would visit Matante Lionide and Muriel would be in and out of the house. She had such a wonderful personality and infectious laugh. I'm sure she will be greatly missed by all.
