When I think of Muzie, I remeber how happy she always was. Her ability to inspire with her encouraging words. Her want to entertain and have company, then spend all day in the kitchen cooking. She was always concerned about everyone's feelings and such a nice lady. I know that her presense will be sincerely missed. My heart goes out to the Barcelona family and everyone who's life has been touched by Mumzie.
