Muriel B. Golon

Muriel B. Golon, 80, formerly of Colonie and Delaware County, died peacefully on August 4, 2009 at Samaritan Hospital, Troy, after a brief illness.
Born in Jamaica, New York on June 24, 1929, Muriel spent most of her days in the Capital Region. She worked as a federal employee for over 25 years, serving both with the Internal Revenue Service and the Social Security Administration.

Also feeling her loss deeply are her guardian angels-Bonnie, Janet, Kathi, Lizzie, Lynn, Nicole and Tara.
Friends and relatives are invited to call on Saturday August 8, 2009, from 10am-12pm at New Comer-Cannon, 343 New Karner Rd., Colonie, followed by her burial in Our Lady of Angels Cemetery, Colonie.
