To the entire family of Keith Murphy, I was so saddened to hear of his passing. Keith has a very special place in my heart! I will forever remember he and Helen at every boys basketball game, whether he was cheering for his son Jim, for myself, for my son, Quinn, or any of the hundreds of youung men who played basketball "for them"!! My prayers go out to all of Keith's family!
