Muriel Mae Biles

September 5, 1933 – May 25, 2024

 

Muriel was born in Natrona, Wyoming September 5tth,1933 to Thomas Manning and Clarice Lyle (Sanky) Manning. She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, Paul Biles, two sisters; Marguerite Scovill and Clarice Ann Manning, Four brothers; Thomas, Percy, Carrol and Charles Manning and one half-brother, Ernest Manning. She is survived by one brother: John Neil Manning of Flora, Indiana, besides numerous nieces and nephews.

Muriel married Paul Biles June 21st, 1950, and was married to him for over 62 years until his death in 2013. Muriel became one of Jehovah’s Witnesses December 24, 1960, in Burley, ID. She faithfully served her God, Jehovah until the day of her death.

Muriel did not have children of her own, but picked up numerous sons and daughters along her way who were happy to call her mom. Muriel was an extremely generous, down-to-earth person who could always be counted on for new adventures. Muriel and Paul were well known for not staying in one place too long and as a result were full of life’s lessons learned. Muriel took flying lessons in her youth and received her real estate license in the mid 1960’s. Muriel and Paul had their own band in the 1950’s. She and Paul owned a restaurant in Malta, ID, had an auction house in Heyburn, Id and bought a ranch in Muleshoe, Texas, not realizing they were a bit too old to run one. One time, not long ago, she listed all the things she would still like to do and everyone that knew her drew the line at bungee jumping. Most of all she enjoyed telling people about her God, Jehovah and all the wonderful things He has in store for mankind.

A Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, June 15th, at 2:00 p.m. at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses which is located at 233 West 3rd Street North, Burley, Idaho.

“Do Not be amazed at this…….” John 5:28,29
