A Native women from Mendocino County Muriel Grace McCoy was born to Dorothy & 
Mervin Britton of Covelo on August 28, 1940.

As in life, as in death Muriel was surrounded by her family as she passed away 
on September 19, 2006. She leaves behind her siblings, sister Sharron Howe of 
South Dakota and her family, brother Mervin "Butch" Britton of Upper Lake.

Muriel married the love of her life Norman McCoy shortly after high school and 
started their family. Muriel was full of life, as grown up she loved to play 
sports while in school. Moving on with life she got together her own co-ed 
softball traveling team, she was a pool shark. She played many years 
for "Hoppers Corner" & "Taylors Tavern".

Every year Muriel's family would get together and camp at Lake Mendocino. She 
never missed a year. We could go on and on about what Muriel "Mom" loved to do 
but there is one more thing. She love to hang out and go out of town with her 
basket weaving crew, "Cora", "Kathy" and many "others" but most of all the most 
important part of her life was being with her family.
