Just woke up in the middle of the night and thought about Mary and Tim. I met Mary when I just arrived in New York from Jamaica, she literally taught me everything that I know while working at ULLICO. I watched the courtship between Mary and Tim, he made her so happy, I remember how lovely they looked on their wedding day. RIP Tim.

Tim Murphy is one of the fondest memories I have when I think back on our years at West Park. What an athlete! Built like a bull, he moved like a gazelle.
Tim was one of the kindest, most gentle people you could meet. He was such a pleasure to be around and provided a great example of spirituality.
Rest in Peace, Tim. Please remember those of us who have yet to follow. Clear a path and get together with Ed Walsh (Bro. Arthur) and Tom Feerick (Bro. Francis) Get a basketball team together. Hopefully, I'll find a spot on it.
Sincerely, Jim Mahoney (Stephen'50)

I remember Tim when we worked togather at ULLICO. He and Marie had relocated from NYC and I was only 3yr out of high school. He was so nice to me, he always had something nice to say. When he and his wife left the company it seemed as if all the life and fun that was in the company left too. I missed him then and miss he now. Mary take care and you can reach me at ULLICO.

I fondly remember Tim during our tenure together at Damien Memorial HS in Honolulu in the '60s. The event that sticks with me most vividly is when Tim knocked on the trailer door of John Wayne during the filming of "In Harms Way" and requested that 'the Duke' take a photo with his friends, Hugh Greenan, Willie Doyle, and me. I still treasure that photo and think of Tim every time I see it! Bless you, Tim. I will keep you and your family, especially Mary, in my prayers!

Gentle Tim, powerful Tim, holy Tim...No doubt the angels have brought him home! Of course! But if there's a line to get to St. Peter leave it to humble Tim to allow the others to go first..
Right Pi?

I have the fondest memories of Tim when he was a young student in West Park, NY.
A fantastic athelete as well. May he enjoy the rest and peace his wonderful life deserves.

You are fondly remembered here by Peter, Christine, Barry, Jenna, and David. May you rest in peace, and I have no doubt you will have plenty of jokes and stories to keep everyone in heaven smiling and laughing.
