He loved old westerns, gardening, and hunting and fishing trips with his sons, relatives and friends.

Most of all he greatly enjoyed the company of his grandchildren, great-grandchildren and close friends.
    Murriel was of the Freewill Baptist faith and a former member of the Boundless Love gospel trio.
