Floyd, Kathy, Charlie, and girls-What a fitting tribute to Queenie that SO many people honored her and you by attending her wake, church service, and interment! Muriel was such a special lady who inspired us all to be more than we think we can be! Her courage was amazing and we will miss her. Love from Point Head Linda and Roy

Dear Floyd,
Nancy showed me the notice in the Times Union. We are both so sorry. I cannot tell you how many times I have fondly thought of the two of you since you left Albany. I wish you comfort and solace in this time of deep sadness. May God bless you and keep you.

Dear Floyd,
What a sad day this is. Muriel was such a bright light and an inspiration to me. She would always turn a negative into a positive - a lesson I should learn but still haven't quite accomplished. Our prayers are with you and your family as your sorrow is so great. Blessings and comfort to you all.
Love,
Diane and Mike Mineau

Dear Floyd,
Our hearts were so saddened for you when we heard the news about Muriel. What a great loss for you to endure... there truly are no words that make it any better. So I won't try. However, I would like to share a thought.
In light of the fact that Muriel always had such a great sense of humor and seemed to always be able to see something positive even when she was suffering so, I don't think she'd mind my telling you that I can just see her in heaven with that mischievous smile saying, "Well, you know, I didn't want to leave Floyd behind, but it's not forever and besides, I'm in such great company here... When the limo pulled up well...you can't pass that up!"
I know she is spreading joy and laughter there.
That is how I will always remember her. She is amazing. I know she is attending a most amazing "welcome home" party and is enjoying her renewed health.
Take care friend and know that she will be sorely missed by all of us.

Dear Floyd and Family,
Please accept my sincere condolences upon the passing of your beloved Wife Muriel. While I had only known you both for a short time while I was at Dockside. Both muriel and you were a favorite of mine, I loved seeing you together and talking with you both, when you came into the office. You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. God Bless.

Dear Floyd and family,
How our thoughts and prayers are with you all. We were SO blessed to have you in our lives for so many years. We will never forget the joy that "Gorgeous" brought to all whose lives she touched. We know she's rejoicing in the presence of Jesus!

I only knew Muriel a short time, but it was easy to see right away how special she was. Thankfully she met and married an equally special person in Floyd. I am blessed for knowing them both. My condolences to Muriel's family.
She and Floyd are in my thoughts
I was her physical therapist.
