Mr. Murphy, who my father would refer to as "Greek Murphy" was a simple but hard working man. He had an enormus hand shake along with a similiar size heart...he was a honest man, " a straight shooter" a genuine person who cared about others. May God hold him in the palm of his hand and may he be reunited with those loved ones who await him among the eternal green pastures of heaven.
Sincerely,
Timothy D. Munn
grandson of Dublin's own Laura Ellen Murphy
