James J. Murray

Jimmy participated in the grand opening of the Ronald McDonald House in Cleveland (and later at the RMH in Mobile, AL) and in the intervening years we saw each other many times at conferences, anniversary celebrations and grand openings of other houses. He was always so positive and encouraging. He loved the families. Tireless in his devotion to the cause, never political. He will be missed as an inspiration to us all.

We would like to extend our sympathy to the family, especially Michelle and Brian. May God Bless everyone.

I knew Jimmy and his lovely wife as parishioners at St Thomas of Villanova, where I served as the first Permanent Deacon. Jimmy's love of the Blessed Mother was inspirational. He would come to our RCIA group every year and share his many stories. He was and is today a living saint. Always smiling, he would light up the room. He was a joyful man with a commanding presence. God bless you, Jimmy. Rest in God's peace.
