To Muriels family; You won't know me or my family, but Muriel was our neighbor. We always would say hi to her in passing, she always had a smile and always wanted to say hello. She was one of the sweetest neighbors someone could have. May she rest easy. We'll miss her presence and seeing her in passing, she had a way of lighting up someone´s day.
