Obituary for Muriel Simon
Muriel loved to travel and during her lifetime she realized her dreams of walking on the Great Wall of China, going on an African Safari, and cruising the waters of Alaska, among other wonderful adventures that she enjoyed with friends and family.
Muriel loved to read, was never without her Kindle or a book in hand. She was a prolific writer of beautiful prose and poetry, often auto-biographical. With this, she leaves a beautiful legacy for all who loved her.
As the great-granddaughter of Mordechai and Rive Nozick of Osevetz Russia circa 19th century, Muriel was so very proud to be one of the original members of the Loyal Family Circle, Inc (LFC), an organization formed in 1929 when she was only one year old. Her father, Max Terry was the first President of the LFC, which remains an active organization today and includes thousands of Muriel’s cousins.
Above all, Muriel deeply treasured and was proud of her family, including her closest “official” relatives and those who she considered family by “choice and love” including Paula Gagnon, Margarita Contreras and Hector Brachos.
Until the last day of her life at the age of 95 Muriel continued to impress everyone she met with her razor sharp mind. She was always a woman with a plan to keep moving, learning, growing and loving.
Muriel will be laid to rest on Friday December 22, 2023 at 12:00 noon at a graveside service at Lincoln Park
Cemetery,1469 Post Rd, Warwick, RI 02888. The family invites all who wish to attend both service and a lunch immediately following (location of which will be announced at the service).
In lieu of flowers, donations to either the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC or a charity of your choice would be greatly appreciated.
