Obituary of Muriel Snarr

Muriel peacefully passed away with family by her side, September 4, 2018 at the Percy E. Moore Hospital at the age of 81 years.

In the 1950’s and 60’s Muriel worked as nurse in the Canadian Army, and then at the Morris General Hospital.  She met Allan, and they were married November 18, 1967.  Together they raised their children on the family farm.  Muriel had many interests including baking, her homemade bread won many 1st place ribbons in the Morris Stampede bread baking competition, gardening, reading, curling, and horses.  She and daughter Susan went to many horse shows together, and eventually Muriel began to compete herself, bringing home a few ribbons.  Muriel was a generous and caring person, and she will be sorely missed by all that knew her.

Left to cherish her memory are her three children Nancy Snarr, Susan (Dean) Switzer, John (Julie) Snarr, and two grandchildren Jamie Snarr and Jase Chartier. Muriel was predeceased by her husband Allan Valentine Snarr, her parents Mark and Eliza (nee Davies) Wray, brother Fred Wray and sister Elizabeth Wray.

We love you Mom, and we will miss you.

The funeral service will be held Tuesday, September 11, 2018 at 2:00pm at the Morris United Church.  Burial will take place at the Morris Cemetery.  Viewing will be held Monday, September 10 from 12:00pm to 6:00pm at Morris Funeral Home and at the church prior to the funeral service.
