Jim Murphy, you will be missed by one and al! Not knowing Jim well, other than our association at Kishwaukee Cardio Rahab, Jim was always good company.
Especially the stories he told of his days with the Illinois State Police!!!
Rest In Peace!!!

My thoughts and prayers are with Jim's family. I enjoyed working with him when he visited ISP District 16 . He always had a smile and a good laugh. Such a personable good natured guy! May he rest in peace... he's watching over us from above.

Carole and family. The news of Jim's passing was a great shock. You have lost a wonderful man. I served under an number of District Commanders during my tenure with the State Police. He was by far the best that I served under. You all have my heart felt condolences.
