McGAHEY, Muriel, Jean (née Boddy) - It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and dear friend to many, on Wednesday, April 8, 2020.
She was certainly a feisty, fun-loving, life of the party type person, always welcoming others into her circle of friends.
She turned 96 in March of this year and luckily, we were able to celebrate her birthday as a family before the pandemic prevented us from being together.
It seems so ironic that the very social lady she was, always organizing a family/friend get-together, that she should pass away during this strict social distancing period.
