Not sure what to say?

Kevin, sorry to read about your fathers death. I know how important your family is to you. You and Jan are in our thoughts and prayers during this time of loss. Mark and Peggy Glander

As CFO at United Way of Greater Milwaukee, I worked with many fine volunteers and supporters. I can honestly say that Jack was the consumate volunteer and donor. I had the utmost respect for him personally and professionally and greatly valued his mentoring. He was just unflappable and very wise in so many different circumstances. He treated everyone as a peer and became a friend of many at United Way. His generosity was without match. I will miss his warm and caring personality. He was...

As a long-time Corporate Secretary of Wisconsin Energy Corporation, I had many opportunities to work with Jack, and to observe his many contributions to our company's Board of Directors. He was always well-prepared to discuss the current issues and problems, and offer well-thought out suggestions. I admired his sincere desire for excellence in everything he did and said--and always with a twinkle in his eye. As we go through life, we observe many people, and admire just a few. Jack Murray...

What a guy... Very memorable... Very down to earth. I remember fondly his support of those with Crohns and Colitis, and lots of others medical issues.

Dear Audrey and Family,
It is with much sadness that Dorothy and I learned of Jack's death. Jack was a golf buddy and friend of ours at Paradise Valley Country Club. Needless to say I came to regard Jack with the utmost esteem. I admired his intellect, his sense of humor, love of family, and his service to others. When Jack spoke, I listened because you were bound to learn something. At last he is at peace after enduring so many physical problems without complaint. You have our...

Audrey, Joyce Borndahl called and said Jeanne had called her and told her about Jack. I have tried to call you numerous times but no answer. I will call again soon. Charlie and I wish to extend our sympathy to you and your family and our prayers are with you. We both know how it is to lose a spouse. Much love Carol in FdL

As a retired employee of Universal Foods Corporation, I'm sorry to hear of his passing.UF was a great corporation to work for and it was Mr. Murray's attitude to the employees that made it that way.

Dear Aunt Audrey, Mary, Susan, David, Kevin and families...my heartfelt sympathies in the loss of your Dad, ( Uncle Jack). I am so sorry I was unable to attend the funeral but am currently in AZ. I have wonderful memories of Uncle Jack and all of you...he was a great man...he always patted me on the head and made me laugh when I was little, and as I grew into my teens teased me (as did Uncle Jim as well!) about the boyfriends, etc. Loved him. Thoughts and prayers are with you. May your...

Audrey & Family,
We extend our condolences to you and your family at this painful time. At this time, we are in Florida with family, including David and his family. David and Susan are friends, since high school. Our thoughts and prayers are with you. We will certainly miss Jack. Eric had a wonderful working relationship and great respect for Jack's insight on management issues.
