Thank you Maurice for your dedicated military service for this Great Nation and the freedom for all of us to cherish today. It was a honor of knowing you as a friend and comrade at Chinatown Post 328, The American Legion. I am sure you are in good hands upstairs and joining your submarine buddies. May God Bless you all.

Mr. Searle,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the USN during WW II as a member of the "Silent Service" and also for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

My heartfelt condolences to Belle and the Searle family on the passing of a great, great man, Murray Searle.
My family always spoke of the compassion and concern he had for so many people. No doubt that he will be missed, of course, by his family as well as his many friends.

To the Searle Family and my Dear Friend Darryln,

Murray was and is an inspiration to us all. He truly lived life to the fullest. He inspires me to keep going, to be charitable with others and to share kind words with whomever I should meet... The stars in heaven will forever shine more brightly because of him. I for one will never forget his hardworking ethics and his love of his family.

With fondness and admiration,

Phaedra
