After an eight-year courageous journey with Alzheimer’s, Muriel Marie (Price) Lebeau, also belovedly known as Nan, Nanny Noo Noo, Moo Moo, peacefully passed away, 20 October 2025, at the age of seventy-five. Until the very end, Muriel maintained her genuine care for others, kindness, love of family and friends, and gratitude for a blessed life that was filled with thousands of wonderful experiences.
She will forever be lovingly remembered by Ray, her husband and best friend of sixty years, daughters Michelle Chapman (Chris), Danielle Lebeau (Luc) and Dana Lebeau (Jonas). Muriel was a proud and loving Nanny to nine terrific grandchildren, Nicholas Bourdon, Kody Briscoe, Raiel Chapman, Jayme Briscoe, Isabelle Bourdon, Danika Bourdon, Sadie Veitch (Dad – Chris), Carter and Nathan Chapman. She was the great-Nanny of Reese, Demetrius and Niomi. She will be missed by her siblings, Florrie Moss, Austin Price, Clyde Price (Beulah), Watson Price (Rose), Melvin Price, Debbie Power (Bob), Pam Hopkins, Beverley Stroud (Rob), and brother-in-law Allan Lebeau (Marion), as well as many nieces and nephews and extended family members.
Muriel was predeceased by her parents, Clarence and Priscilla (Cooper) Price, her brother-in-law Bert Moss (Florrie) and her sister Doreen Hill (Jim).
