Things Muril Loved...
Muril loved anything that had to do with family, friends, and Jesus. He loved family gatherings for holidays, birthdays, and Sunday dinners. KFC and the Family Steakhouse were two of his favorite places to eat. He loved good ole fried chicken and fish.
Muril loved to hunt with his son and brothers. There were many stories told and lots of laughs while staying at deer camp in the cabin. He was a great fisherman. He loved it when the grandkids would ask him to go to the lake. Riding four-wheelers and his side-by-side was something he loved to do when he would camp with his family.
Muril loved Jesus. He went to church and was a faithful servant to the Lord. He enjoyed playing his guitar and singing gospel songs with friends and family. It meant the most to Muril when he had his brothers and sisters singing along with him.
Muril loved everyone and enjoyed the simple things in life. He was a hard worker and it showed in everything he did.
