Our deepest sympathy to Msgr. Murray's loving family. We came to know Msgr. Murray at St. Pius in Montville and always enjoyed his great sense of humor and his love of sports. He truly was a people person and a wonderful priest who always brought a smile to our faces. God bless...

We had the honor and pleasure of being married by Monsignor Murray in 1987. He was a wonderful priest and advisor during our pre-Cana. We became Pre-Cana leaders in our church in Texas. He was a big part of that decision. We are proud members of Murray's Mob and wore the shirts while we lived in Ca. and Texas. He baptized our daughter Katie while he was in Ca. We were blessed to have Msgr. Murray be a part of our family.

Went to Bayley Ellard when Father Murray was there and later did work for Msgr. Murray at St. Mary's. He was always fair both at discipline at Bayley and business at St. Mary's. I will certainly miss you as will all of my classmates at Bayley. God Bless.

Msgr. Jim was a good family friend in "Dublin". Our mothers were great friends and we spent many happy times in Manasquan Beach.
I know he was loved in Denville.
Rest in Peace.

Monsignor Murray was such a dedicated priest and a wonderful person. He will be greatly missed by many whose lives he touched over the years. Just a few months back, he so graciously accepted our invitation to attend our 50th class reunion from St. John's high school in Paterson. He had such a great time that night with all of us and he added so much humor to the night. I am sure that God will reward him for all the wonderful work he did while here on earth.

It was a pleasure to know Jim as a friend and customer. He and his little cocker poodle Duff would visit from time to time. He loves Jesus the Lord God now face to face.
