I have so many fond memories of being blessed to of had Muriel & Richard as my childhood neighbors… I always said yes to them when they needed a babysitter so they could have a night out together, they loved to dance… I enjoyed the laughs once they got home as well… As our next door neighbors on the Holley Road, they always made everyone feel welcomed into their home.. I can picture them having the dance of a lifetime now that they have reunited. Renee & Dana, sending my heartfelt condolences to you both along with the rest of the family.. Prayers of comfort to you all <3
