Muriel was a dear friend of mine for many years and I am so sorry to hear of her passing but I know she’s happy in heaven with Tommy and all our friends from the Newman Y who have gone before us. We shared so many good times together at the cape, our annual beach party at Ann Eagan’s and many luncheons. Muriel was always dressed to the nines wherever she would go with hair and nails so perfect also! Dan and I send our deepest condolences to Carol and all her nieces and nephews who were so good to her all her life. She will remain in our hearts and prayers.
I remember Muriel. We shared the same name .Muriel.
