Jayson McMurry Obituary

Jayson Dean McMurry October 26, 1978 - May 20, 2010 Jayson (Dert) McMurry was born in Salem Oregon, and was murdered in an Oildale house fire on May 20th 2010. He attended schools in Oildale and Ridgecrest California. He loved all kinds of music from punk to country. He was a kind and genreous person, and his wit and humor will be deeply missed. He was the loving father of Destiney McMurry age 10, Alecsis McMurry age 5 and Andrew McMurry age 3. His other survivors include: parents Jack and Carol Lewis, father Jim McMurry, brother James McMurry, grandparents Bob and Dede Tindall and Alfred McMurry. Many more friends and family members also mourn his senseless loss. Services will be held on June 5th at 3:00 in the Beloved Care Funeral Home 115 18th street, Bakersfield. www.bakersfield.com/obits

In Loving Memory of My Dad

Even though I only had ten short years with you, the love and impact you left in my life have stayed with me every day since. I remember your laugh, your hugs, and the way you made me feel safe. I wish I had more time, more memories, and more of you—but I hold onto what I do have with all my heart.

Thank you for being my dad, even for a short while. I carry you with me always, in everything I do. I hope I’m making you proud.

Forever your little girl.
