Muriel A Weeks

Our sweet beloved mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, great-great-grandmother, sister, aunt and friend returned to our Lord and Savior on March 28 from natural death at the age of 94 years young.

Muriel was born in Ogden, Utah to William and Hazel Goodell on Sept. 29, 1928. She married Paul D. Weeks in Ogden Utah on Aug. 1, 1946. 

They had five children: one daughter and four boys. 

The family moved from Great Falls Montana in 1965, to Lynden.

Muriel is preceded in death by her mother and father, William and Hazel Goodell; husband Paul D. Weeks; daughter Bette Pearson; son-in-law Steve Pearson; great-granddaughter Chrystal Hansen and her unborn baby; and five of her siblings. 

Following Paul’s death, she was briefly married to George Hadrath who passed from a sudden illness.

Muriel worked hard all of her life. She loved quilting, fishing, bowling and being a blessing to her family. 

She also loved making salsa and caramel corn and she donated blood on a regular basis for as long as she could.

Muriel is survived by her four sons: Mark (Liz) Weeks, Luke (Brenda) Weeks, Matthew (Kathy) Weeks, John (Marilyn) Weeks, sister Cookie (Jerry) Gibson, brother Ted (Darlene) Amsler; 14 grandchildren, 19 great-grandchildren and 15 great-great-grandchildren.

The family would like to give their thanks and gratitude to the Lynden Police Department, Lynden Fire Department, PeaceHealth Saint Joseph Hospital staff and Christian Health Care Center staff.

To all her family and friends, she bids you farewell with a smile and thank you and God bless you.

Funeral services will be held at Greenacres Memorial Park in Ferndale on Friday April 7. Graveside service at 1:30 pm with a memorial gathering in the chapel to follow.

A viewing will be held as well that morning before the services from 9 a.m. until noon at Greenacres Memorial Park.

We love you, Mom. You’re only a breath away.
