Still speechless. I'm sorry I couldn't be there yesterday. But you were all in my heart. Murray. You will always be remembered for your infectious laugh and warm smile. You'll always be Sour Cabbage to me ;) Miss you all and love you all very much. Stay strong. Murray will always be here in spirit. <3 Rest in peace my friend.
Murray will be missed greatly. He was a kind and gentle soul. He had hired me when it was winroc. I'll be thankful for giving me an opportunity to work, laugh, enjoy and remember his calmness in a hectic work environment. My condolences to Judy and family. He will be missed greatly.
I am so saddened by your loss. I am keeping you all in my thoughts and prayers at this time and in the days to follow that you will be comforted and given strength as you endure your loved one gone so soon.
My Dearest Murray, I know you hear Judy’s sorrow and listen to your children’s cries. Your friend misses you so very much, as do I. You were taken from us too soon. I’m going to miss your laugh, your humour, watching you enjoy your grandchildren. James and I sit thinking this is not real. You will be missed and you are so heavily loved. You made your impression in this world and we will never forget it. Rest easy my friend we will be here for your family. Love you to the moon and back! Xoxo
So sad to hear about Murray. I have a lot of fond memories of Murray from the farm in Foam Lake. Our deepest condolences. Leslie & Shad Switzer and Family.
My deepest condolences to Murray's family. He would make a trip to Calgary a blast when my family would go there for a visit. We shared many great memories with him. He will be missed.
Very sorry for your loss. I have many fond memories of Murray and spending time at the family farm growing up together in the Bertdale community. Deepest condolensces.
Murray was a wonderful guy through the years we worked together. Our thoughts and prayers with his entire family. Your friends at Certified.
We are so sorry to hear of Murrray’s passing. We have wonderful memories of growing up on the farm next door and of days filled with fun. He grew into a wonderful man and your family will miss him but his love will be with you. Hugs from Lori and David
Our deepest condolences to everyone who is grieving the loss of Murray. It was very sad & shocking news of his sudden passing. I (Deb) graduated with Murray and remember him as such a happy go lucky guy, and was always smiling or laughing. Prayers for everyone to find strength in healing during this very difficult time. God Bless
Growing up your family was like a second home for me. Murray and Judy were almost like a second set of parents and Chantelle was like a sister - or at least we pretended! I know first hand how difficult it is to lose a parent and my heart breaks for all of you to lose your dad and husband so unexpectedly. I will always remember Murray as someone who always had a funny story to tell and a friend to many who will miss laughter.
I am sorry to hear about the loss. Murray was a great guy someone I admired and respected. My thoughts and condolences to Judy Chantel and Cole
Judy and Family There is no way to lessen the sorrow, losing someone so precious to you, as it’s been almost a year since I lost Al, July 13, as you know. Al so enjoyed Murray’s strong laugh, Wishing you strength and comfort. “This may be hard for you to believe but Al is with me every day, and Murray will be with you. Wilma
Our sincere sympathy to Judy and family; Sonia, Harvey, Curtis, Cynthia and families. Our thoughts are with you. Gordon and Joanne
So sad to hear he left. A great guy. He will be missed. My condolences.
Murray was a great guy and a devoted family man. We worked together for 17 years and he was a great person to work with. Always laughing and joking, we share the same sense of humour. We played ball together and he tested my ability to get through a work day with three hours sleep because “you have to have a beer after playing ball”. He will be missed very much and my heart goes out to Judy, Chantelle, Cole, and all the rest of the family.
Dear Judy and family, I have known Murray for most of my life. He graduated a year before me. Harvey and I went to school together. Murray was such a well liked guy on school. Haven't seen him since school but I see he was sure proud of his beautiful family. My deepest sympathy to you all.
I grew up with Murray and the Danyluk family as we were neighbors on the farm. I was heartbroken when I heard of Murray’s death Even though it has been years since we have visited. I could see through Facebook that he was a man who loved his family and enjoyed the outdoors. Our sincere condolences to all his family and friends. We are sending our love to you all.
Dear Chantelle and Andy; Although I never met your family Chantelle; I know that your father will be sadly missed. My deepest condolences to you and the rest of your family. Sincerely Kitty
I had the pleasure of meeting Murray over 20 years ago through Winroc. Though the majority of our time together was through work I still considered Murray a good friend. He will be sadly missed by all.
Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family now, in the sudden loss of your dad. Words cannot express how we feel, your dad will be missed.
Judy, Chantelle and Cole, When I heard of Murray’s passing I was at a loss for words. The memories of parties, camping, just visiting will always hold a special place in my heart. Judy, I won’t even try to imagine what you are going through but be thankful for all the memories you can hang on to. The one thing no one can take away when we lose someone, is those. Chantelle and Cole...Losing a parent sucks, no matter how old you are. But again, the memories will always be there. Please accept my sincere sympathy and deepest condolences
Deepest Sympathy to all Murray’s family, I graduated with Murray and remember him as always happy.
We are very sorry for your loss, our hearts are with you through this tough time.
Judy, Chantelle, Cole, Sonia, Harvey, Curtis, Cynthia and families, Please accept my condolence and deep sympathies on the unexpected loss of Murray - a larger than life presence, with a laugh sized to match. Although miles and years separated us I will always hold Murray's memory close as such a fantastic, all-around man. We were bonded by our love of the Riders, yet Murray was always game to discuss almost any topic and the odds were that we would end up in laughter no matter what that topic was! My wish and hope your entire family is that you are all able to honour Murray's life by coming together as one, as families do and should at times such as this, and hold tight as you share the fantastic memories of Murray to keep them all alive and well, close to your heart, through the days, months and years ahead. Sending our love from Winnipeg.
Sonia & Family, we extend our deepest sympathy and heartfelt condolences. May the many fond memories of Murray bring you peace and comfort. Stu and Jeannie
I met Murray through friends while camping years ago. Not too long after I had the fortune of working with him at Winroc Drywall. We would tell each other our weekend camping and fishing stories and sometimes of the same fishing spots that we had been to. You always knew Murray was around when you heard his unique loud and infectious laugh. Although we didn't stay close after I left Winroc, when we did meet there was always discussion of some camping spot or fishing hole or a weekend spent with the families. Murray will be missed and remembered by all who had the privelige of knowing him.
Dear Judy and family, We just heard of Murray's passing and are so sorry we were not there on Monday. We have great memories of Murray from back in the Calgary Co-op days when I worked with him at the service station. Murray was a great guy and always had us in stitches. He will be missed! Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Rob and Cathy Skalicky
