    I was very saddened to hear of Muriel’s passing. My mind immediately went back to childhood times with you all as close neighbours and friends. Such good times they were:) I remember your Mom’s spunk, her direct way of speaking, her “colorful” language that made me grin, and her huge heart. To this day, her chocolate cake recipe is the only one I make and it is always gets rave reviews:) She was a wonderful lady. Hold your memories close, take strength from them, and enjoy and cherish them. Hugs to you all.
