Muriel Berthier was 82 years old when she died. Her legacy is not easily quantifiable.She was born into humble circumstances as many were on Isle Madame in 1941. The bite of the Great Depression was still very real and many sons, husbands and brothers were off to war, some out of duty, others to escape the misery.
If you asked today who Muriel Berthier was, only a minority of residents would know her name. For Muriel that was a good thing, but if you believe that role models who indefatigably do good deeds and offer selfless sacrifice to make society stronger and more nurturing are the backbone of communities, it is not.DR. BOB MARTEL: Reorganizing Nova Scotia emergency departments means ‘ruffling some feathers’Muriel Berthier was 82 years old when she died on Feb. 12.
She married in 1962 and while working full-time she raised four children, much of the time on her own. For the majority of her career, she was on call 24/7, responding to calls in the middle of the night for trauma victims or to help sort out a sick child. She not only provided professional service but would often help console family members and offer whatever assistance she could to her colleagues.
As is common in politics, rhetoric often supplants logic and fairness. In a packed committee room, there sat Muriel among colleagues and legal representatives from the association while they disavowed her claim and as such devalued the decades of service she had provided residents of Richmond County.
There have been triumphs and tragedies along the way and many obstacles to overcome but it was people such as Muriel Berthier who, in her own quiet and self-effacing way, kept it all going in the background.It was a privilege to have known Muriel as a friend but especially as a professional colleague.
