Not sure what to say?

forever missed, I know you will be waiting for us when our own time comes..

Grandpa/Great Grandpa Murphy:

Today we will Celebrate your life through the memories that we all shared, and by far you will not be forgotten. We will Miss you dearly but you will forever be in our hearts.

God saw you getting tired,
When a cure was not to be,
So he wrapped his arms around you;
and whispered "come with me".
You didnt deserve what you went through;
So he gave you rest.
God's Garden must be Beautiful;
He only takes the BEST!.
And when I saw...

Uncle Carl,
All I can think about is how happy you are now. To be welcomed not only into your mother's and father's loving arms and those of your beautiful sister and your brothers, but those of your Lord, Jesus! What an awesome wonder you are experiencing and I know some day I will see you there.
I thank you for all the great memories. You always knew how to keep us busy when we came to visit...and we spent a lot of time visiting you, Aunt Ginny and all my cousins and second...

To the best dad ever. I'll really miss you and the wonderful times we always had together. All of our fishing trips we use to have together. I love you dad with all of my heart.

Carl was a brother admired and looked up to by all his sisters. What ever he said was the gospel as we saw it. He was not perfect and we had a good many spats, but love won out. He and I had a passion for gardening and many hours we spent describing a new plant to one another. Now he is in the midst of the most beautiful garden in heaven for him to enjoy.

YOU WILL ALWAYS HOLD A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART AND WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN. MY KIDS WILL ALWAYS KNOW WHAT A GREAT MAN THEIR GREAT GRANDPA MURPHY WAS, I HAVE MANY MEMORIES TO SHARE WITH THEM. WE LOVE YOU DEARLY AND WILL KEEP YOU IN OUR HEARTS FOREVER. LOVE YOU GRANDPA.

Grandpa,
There are so many memories that I will cherish of you. Like the time you made me pick black eyed peas with you and then spend all night hulling them, my thumbs were so numb. I always considered you more like a father to me, since you were the only one I had for along time. You were an incredible man, I only wish my son had the chance to get to know you. I know he would love you just as much as all of us always will. I will never forget you, I love you and miss you!

Grandpa,
I will never forget all the awesome trips we had in your boat and the warm milk you used to give me when I was a little girl just before bed. Those really stick out the most for me. You were a great grandpa/man and really the only grandpa I've ever had. Your memories will never fade and I will hold you close to my heart forever. My sister will be glad to have her grandpa with her now.
I Love You!
