Muriel Metts passed away peacefully at home on September 28, 2019. She was born and raised in Live Oak, Florida and lived for the last 40 years in Mount Pleasant, SC. Before Mount Pleasant, Muriel called Stafford, Virginia her home with her husband and 5 children.
Muriel was always the life of the party and she obtained her silver life master in bridge and was a successful business woman. She lived a passionate life, traveled the world, hosted many great parties, enjoyed the game of golf and lived life to the fullest. Muriel loved the beach and good food, cold cocktails and music. Her many friends and her family knew her bright smile and fashion-able flair. She will be missed at the bridge table by all she competed with and her tenants that were more like family.
She will be missed by her children, Kathy Metts, Terry Metts (Karl), Keith Metts, Vicky Metts (Chuck) as well as her grandsons, Jason Metts and Alex Miller. She is survived by 3 great-grandchildren, Scarlett, Eliza and Ethan, Niece, Linda Page, Nephew, Mike Page (Crystal) and several grand nieces and nephews. Her ex-husband Ralph Metts is also surviving.

Her life was lived like one of her favorite songs "I've loved, I've laughed and cried. I've had my fill, my share of losing and now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing. To think I did all that and may I say-not in a shy way, I did it my way."
