We are heartbroken to announce the passing of our loving family member Murray, who passed peacefully from this earth on the evening of June 19 after his diagnosis of cancer. 

Murray was born on November 10, 1954, and since that time, has brought light and joy into the lives around him. Living his lifespan in Boom Road, the love he had for his family, animals, and community were beyond compare. He was always willing to volunteer his time, and the hours and friendships that developed over the years could never be calculated! 

Dad always had a smile, a joke, and a kind word for everyone. Family get togethers, outdoor adventures, camping, travelling, and hockey were a few of his favorite things. He was also the President of his own “Grampy Day Care”, where he helped look out for his Grandchildren in their younger years, and then of course, his Fur Grandbabies, Cooper, Bronco and Hunter.
