Not sure what to say?

Michael, we miss your smile and your warm personality!! We pray your an angel looking down over your friends and family so the pain of your loss can subside!!

Thoughts and Prayers out to the Murphy family. Mike was a really good dude. Had some good times playing baseball together growing up and then hanging out with the crew during high school days. Will be truly missed.

Dear Mike, Kathy, Michelle, Shannon and Family, We really have no words that will ever ease the pain the family is going through, only the hope that the love that is pouring in will wrap you in some comfort. Words for Mikey though are boundless...he always shined wherever one saw him!!! He had a presence and when he entered a room his smile just lit up the room. He had a heart of gold and you could see that in the way he was around the family and particularly around Laya and Lucas! Our...

Hi Mike and family. I met your son once. A friend told me of your sons passing. I am so sorry for your loss. God bless you!!

Michael, Kathy, Michelle and Shannon:

There are no words that can ease your pain but hopefully being surrounded by family and friends helps a little. I'm glad you liked the Madonna. Our Blessed Mother holds us close always but especially in times of sorrow.

Also, I prayed to St. Monica to ask God to give you comfort at this time. She was the mournful mother of a prodigal son, St. Augustine, who eventually became a great and venerable Saint of the Church.

Know that...

Mike and Kathy,
We are so very sorry for your loss! Your family is in our prayers!

Your amazing smile would always light up a room. Thank you for our friendship and all the wonderful memories. I will cherish them all. Rest easy my friend. Until we meet again. Love you Mike❤

My deepest sympathy to the entire Murphy family during this extremely difficult time.

I've had the pleasure of knowing Mike through my older brother Chris. Mike had such a beautiful smile and amazing personality. I remember in high school if I was at a party and Mike was there, he would take the place of my brother and make sure I had a ride and that I was safe. Mike was definitely the go- to guy if you needed help with something. He came to my house and taught my boyfriend and me how to use a paint sprayer. We obviously did not pay very good attention because Mike ended up...



Mike or "Murph" as I knew him was always smiling and very friendly. The first time I met him was over at one of Bobby's bonfire parties on Cook Rd in the late 90'S/early 2000's when the Stewart's had brought him over. He had me laughing within seconds of talking with him. Throughout the years, I would see him at random parties and get together's and he would always say hello and share a beer or good conversation. His kind and friendly nature is definitely something that stuck with you...
