Murray was born on December 1, 1950, to Murray and Marty Nolte in Kansas City, MO. On May 29, 1970, he married Kittie Pipkin of Kansas City, MO, and she survives the home.
Murray grew up in Johnson County, KS, and was a 1968 graduate of Shawnee Mission North High School. He attended Pittsburg State University in Kansas.

He went on to have a long and very successful career in computers and remained a systems analyst until his retirement in 2017.
In 1985, Murray moved his family to Warsaw, MO, to a property bordering Truman Lake. There he became one of the first computer professionals in the area to work from home remotely for many years.
Murray enjoyed hunting, fishing and boating and spending time at the lake with his family and friends. Murray also loved music of all kinds and had a keen interest in keeping up with his favorite artists. He had a group of several close friends he had known since childhood, with whom he remained best friends his whole life.
Murray was a life-long Kansas Jayhawk, Kansas City Chiefs and Royals fan. He was proud of the fact that he attended the longest game in NFL history on Christmas Day, 1971, when the KC Chiefs hosted the Miami Dolphins at Municipal Stadium.
