July 1, 1942 — December 20, 2020
Mrs. Lorraine M. (Milliken) Muizulis, of Waltham, died unexpectedly on Sunday, December 20, 2020. She was 78.
Lorraine was born on July 1, 1942 in Waltham a daughter of the late Arthur and Catherine (Rehill) Milliken. A graduate of Waltham High School she married Gunars 'Gus' Muizulis on September 9, 1962 in Saint Mary's Church. Married for 48 years Gus died on August 22, 2010.
She worked for various retail stores including Mendelsohn's and Zayre. Her work experience also included fifteen years at Tufts Health Plan followed by eight years as a cafeteria worker for the Waltham Public School System.
When her sons were young she was active as a Cub Scout Den Mother and with various PTA organizations. Lorraine was active with the Waltham Little Nippers Baseball League and volunteered as a member of the Ladies Auxiliary of the league as well as heading up the concession stand and being the official scorer. She was an active volunteer at the bingo at St. Mary's Church for many years. Lorraine organized many excursions to Atlantic City, Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun through Fox Tours for local residents. She and Gus were avid campers and the family spent many summers at Peters Pond Park Campground in Sandwich among other campgrounds.
Lorraine loved time on Cape Cod, most recently in Yarmouth and was a fan of the Cape Cod Baseball League and attended many games with her family. She was also a New England Patriots season ticket holder for almost 15 years and spent many a Sunday afternoon tailgating and braving the elements. Throughout the years their home was filled with the love and company of dogs.
She leaves her sons, Edward T. Muizulis, Thomas M. Muizulis and his wife, Diane, and Waltham Firefighter Scott A. Muizulis, all of Waltham; her grandson, Thomas M. Muizulis Jr.; her siblings, Mary Ann Milliken of Waltham, Arthur Milliken (Linda) of Marlborough, Donna Wilgus (Phil) of Hudson and the late Robert Milliken (late Jeanette); many nieces & nephews.

Tuesday, December 22, 2020 – a note from the funeral home pursuant to Governor Baker's recent order:
During times of uncertainty and crisis one might wonder what to do at the loss of a loved one or how to show support to a friend given the limitations that the pandemic continues to present.
Telephone your friend to offer words of love, support and a verbal hug, drop something delicious by the house, leave a condolence on the funeral home website, make a donation to their favored charity, send a card or flowers or have a Mass said, remain in touch, and above all else . . . say prayers for the deceased and their family and the world during this difficult and unprecedented time.
These simple gifts of sympathy and charity are more valuable than you will ever know.
When public wakes are held capacity limits mean that your visit to the funeral home should be brief to allow other guests time to say hello to the family. Only members of the immediate family remain present throughout.
It goes without saying that people who have lost someone are especially sensitive and understanding to the concerns that some of their own family members and friends may have about visiting any public places right now. If this does not feel like the right time for you to venture out please don't.
Space limitations also mean that funeral services inside the funeral home and in many places of worship will also be private. Most services, at the family's request, will also be livestreamed and recorded for future viewing. The link to access the channel is found at the bottom of the obituary notice online.
Cemetery services are included in the current outdoor gathering limit of twenty-five people.
During any events, public or private, common sense precautions prevail. That includes masks covering your nose and mouth, staying with your household group throughout the services and keeping a sensible distance.
Thank you . . . again . . . for your patience and understanding.
