Obituary: Jean Day Muskopf

Jean Day Muskopf peacefully left this earth at her home on March 16. She made it her life’s work to serve others. She served thousands of hours as a volunteer at McCullough-Hyde Memorial Hospital. She and her husband delivered meals on wheels for many years. Her community involvement earned her special recognition as Oxford Citizen of the Year. Having never met a stranger, she has comforted the mourning, cooked for the hungry and taken care of the lonely for 88 years. 

She is survived by the love of her life, husband Emery Muskopf; daughter Cindy Staton (Steve) of Vancouver, Washington and son Marc Muskopf of Cincinnati; two grandchildren Rachel (Evan) McGovern of Tacoma, Washington, and Daniel (Molly) Staton of Kissimmee, Florida; and three great grandsons Joel McGovern, Isaac McGovern and Malachi Staton; brother Garry Day, sister Winnie Hunt and numerous nieces and nephews and cousins.  

She is preceded in death by her parents, Floyd and Elizabeth Day; brothers Roger Day, Harold Day and Robert Day; and sister Thelma.
