The obituary notice of Muriel Edith CLAYSON

Remembering all the happy times and memories we shared over the years.

Auntie amuriel always very fondly remembered.

So sorry to hear the news - such a lovely lady who supported Julie for so many years.

Muriel was a funny clever lady! She was a fantastic neighbour who would do anything to help. Thanks to her we were able to enjoy holidays and Christmas while she minded our house,our pond of fish, my precious garden and most of all our precious cat Daisy who we hope is sitting on Muriel’s lap in heaven!
Muriel first and foremost was always a nurse, a good person and a shoulder to cry on ! She was enthusiastic about her many commitments especially Tudor House museum and the Nurses league. She was a great quizzer and we enjoyed that too along with her lovely friends. We shared many cups of coffee and in lockdown especially we sat at the top of our gardens and put the world to rights! When Muriel ran out of books to read she was forced to borrow my Harry Potter collection which she said she enjoyed ?
She was a lovely lady and we’re sure she will be sadly missed.

Muriel Clayson. In memory of a truly lovely lady and a special friend.

I first met Muriel some 20 years ago when we were at a meeting of people who wanted to volunteer at Tudor House in Friar Street.
I went onto the administration side of things and Muriel became one of the tearoom ‘staff’. However, if I came up with a research project Muriel was the first person I thought of, she loved a challenge, researching about the different churches within the city centre to the local public houses! She was warned that she didn’t have to sample the ales and if I got a call regarding a 70 year old being drunk and disorderly I would deny all knowledge!

She was also an asset when it came to speaking to school children about wartime rationing turning up in apron and headscarf.

After our time at Tudor Housr we would meet up to play scrabble, I shall miss her laughter at my spelling and I shall miss challenging her on words that I had never, ever heard of, especially medical terminology.
Muriel was so kind towards my dad when he moved to Worcester and in compensation she would send me home with some of her scrummy Victorian sponge as a thank you to him for letting me play scrabble with her.

Her green fingers certainly came to the fore with rhubarb and courgettes, she was amazed when I gave her yellow courgettes, but we agreed not a patch on the green ones.

I shall miss her so much.
Sleep tight Muriel

In memory of our dear friend and neighbour Muriel Clayson .

Muriel was a wonderful and very wise friend who will be greatly missed by Lou and Ray (as well as by all of her many other friends, no doubt). She was a very special lady - the kind you don't often find these days...
