Sheila Muller, formerly of Southampton and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, died on September 13 peacefully at home in Northport surrounded by family. She was 88.

Muller was born in Brooklyn to Charles Kerr and Dorothy Kerr (nee Butler) on April 9, 1934. She attended Baldwin High School and graduated in 1951. She married the love of her life, Charlie Muller, on May 16, 1953 and raised six children in Water Mill and Southampton, and they enjoyed 53 years of marriage before his death in 2006.

Over the years, she worked at Cancellieri Pharmacy, Leahy Opticians and The Bridgehampton Club.

She was an active member of Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Church in Southampton, where she was a Eucharistic minister and sang in the choir.

She and her husband retired to Myrtle Beach in 1990, where they thoroughly enjoyed spending time with grandchildren and became very active in their new church community at St. Michael’s in Garden City, South Carolina.

She is survived by her brother James Kerr and her sister-in-law Barbara (Bam) Cancellieri; her children, Paul Muller (Stephanie) of Austin Texas, Ellen Brady (Garry Velzy) of Northport, Charles Muller (Tia) of Northport, Marianne Cozzolino (Thomas) of Carolina Beach, North Carolina, and Julie Muller (Chris Holden) of Whitingham, Vermont; many grandchildren and great-grandchildren, with two more on the way. She was predeceased by her husband, Charles Muller; her son Lawrence Muller; and her daughters-in-law Suzanne Muller and Patty Muller.

A Memorial Mass will be held at Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Basilica in Southampton on Saturday, November 12, at 11 a.m.

Memorial donations may be made to Visiting Nurse Service & Hospice of Suffolk, Inc. (visitingnurseservice.org) in East Northport, to which the family wishes to extend their absolute gratitude.

Staring Into the Past

In addition to potatoes, carrots grow well in Sagaponack. Our soil type can sustain their thirsty character while letting that long, singular, sweet tap root seek itself deep and straight into the dirt. Thus anchored, the carrot prospers until the day I loosen the dirt around it, and pull. We sell carrots two ways, with greens or without. Most want without, and I am happy to leave the substantial foliage here in its field and not have it end up dislocated in a dumpster far from “home.” These are vigorous carrots, and I have a system for removing the greens, ... by Marilee Foster
