Merilayne Ferrier-Muth, 98, of Mason City died, Sunday, June 28th, 2020 at her home. Visitation was held at Christ’s Church, 710 N. Kentucky Ave., Mason City with Derek Facculyn-Gous officiating, Thursday, July 2nd with the service to follow at 2:00 pm. Masks are encouraged. Interment will be in Oakwood Cemetery in Plymouth. Memorials may be directed to Christ’s Church in Mason City or One Vision in Clear Lake. Merilayne was born on January 16, 1922 in Hampton, IA, the second of eight children, to John P. and Marguerite (Helm) Nalan. The family moved to Mason City when she was four years old. She attended Monroe school and graduated from Mason City High School in 1940. On April 6th, 1941 Merilayne was united in marriage to A. Milton Ferrier at the First Congregational Church in Mason City. To this union three daughters were born, Kathleen, Scarlett, and Bonnie. They farmed in the Nora Springs area for forty years. Merilayne loved being a farm wife and helping Milton with the chores and field work. Milton died June 28th, 1981. Merilayne married Melvin F. Muth on February 14, 1989 at Wesley United Methodist Church in Mason City. They had seven years together before he died in 1996. Merilayne was a member of Christ’s Church, confirming her faith by being re-baptized by submersion in 2013 at the age of 90. She states that one of the ‘high times’ of her life was teaching Sunday school and Bible School in Nora Springs for twenty-five years. She was a College of Regents and life member of the Women of the Moose, having joined in 1951, former member and president of the Community Club in Nora Springs, member and past president of the Young at Heart Grandmother’s Club, past member of the Senior Citizen’s, member of the Bible Buddies study group and the Crazy Eights 500 Club. Until very recently she so enjoyed getting together with her friends for lunch and activities. According to Merilayne her greatest times were spent attending church and spending time with her family and friends. It was special when her family joined together at her home for the holidays. She looked forward to attending family reunions, having missed only three reunions in her lifetime. Merilayne loved to go shopping, out to eat, and to get her nails done. Merilayne will be remembered for her wonderful sense of humor, beloved stubbornness, strength of character, and the great love she had for her family and many friends. Merilayne is survived by three daughters, Kathleen (Jim) Fielder, Scarlett (Gordie) Buchholz, both of Mason City, and Bonnie (Tim) Bradbury of Nora Springs; stepsons Roger Muth of Garner and Fred (Linda) Muth of Clear Lake; step son-in-law Leon Lewis of Cedar Rapids; sister Lucretia Gourley of Goodyear, AZ; sister-in-law Barbara Nalan of Grand Rapids, MN; 10 grandchildren, 16 great-grandchildren, 5 great-great grandchildren; many step grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren; and numerous other relatives and friends.
