I WILL MISS HIM DEARLY!!!

Jamie,
I am so sorry to hear of the loss of your Dad. He sounds like one terrific person and I am sure you will miss him. All best to you and your family, Pam Sinkler Todd - FBS' Mom

Dr. Murphy was a brilliant physician and mentor. I had the privledge to work with him at Jefferson and as a new nurse to hematology/oncology at the time, he always had the time to teach and spend invaluable time with his patients. I will never forget the lessons I have learned from him. My deepest sympathies for your loss.

I worked with Scott when he was at Jefferson. He was a mentor to many, but above all will remember his compassion with patients and their families that went beyond words. His warm smile and yes wonderful ties brought sunshine to all!!

Joanie, Scott's contributions to our lives will always be remembered with awe. He was such a kind, brilliant, dignified, fun and dedicated man. I am honored and priviledged to have known him and wish so much I could have done more. You are in my thoughts. Lisa

Dr. Murphy was a wonderful man - a scholar, a gentleman, a wonderful physician and mentor. He will be sorely missed. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.

Dear Joanie: So sorry to hear about Scott.Please know you are in our prayers.All our best wishes, Bud and Linda Gardner

Dear Joanie:
Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.God bless you.

It was an honor to be a part of your life for the period of time that I cared for your pets. To me, you have always been the perfect representation of what a true gentleman could be. The bond, love, care and consideration that you and Mrs. Murphy shared between one another was inspiring to me and to many others. The world is not nearly as nice of a place without your presence. I cannot believe that I won't see you again. Rest in peace, Dr. Murphy. My heart goes out to you, Mrs. Murphy,...
