My heart aches to hear this. He was such a an amazing teacher. He was the reason I started to love school. I had him in junior high school at Cobbet. I will always remember him. The way he taught was fun. The people in our classroom enjoyed being in his class. What a sad day to lose such an amazing role model as he was. Rest easy now Mr. Murphy. Just remember how loved you were..
