I didn't know Mr. Murray and just started watching the "Queen Sugar" drama on OWN this past weekend. I'm a huge fan of Ava's. When I saw the dedication to Mr. Murray at the end of Episode 1, I was compelled, even drawn to research who he was to "Queen Sugar." I somehow felt a connection. Oddly enough, my paternal roots to Alabama begin in Montgomery. Perhaps this why.

I pray that with each passing day, the Creator of the universe continues to blanket with His peace the hearts of all who loved Mr. Murray and that all find strength and comfort in the memories you have made and keep close of this very special man for Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can't heal. God bless you!

I just had an old employee of Murray come into our carpet supply store in Los Angeles. I had not seen him for 10-15 years. I asked of Murray and his brothers, They would always be joking around while they loaded supplies for their daily work, such good people. So decided to look him up on the web, came across this sad news. Murray was very well known to us, such a kind and giving person. Our deepest condolences to all his family. He will be dearly missed.

I watched the new show on OWN, Queen Sugar, and I noticed in the credits that the first episode was in memory of Murray. How beautiful! This lets me know that his memories will live on as they live within the Lawson Family.

It had not been but a few weeks ago that Gary had a nice heart to heart conversation, as he always had kept in contact with his cousins. Murray was a groomsman in our wedding over 32 years ago. He will be truly missed. Our brother is called home Romans 8:28.

FAMILY:
The lives this man touched are beyond fathoming. Always a smile, but with wisdom; words so well articulated and I can go. Many may walk his sands, but none will fill his steps. A GREAT MAN HAS TRANSCENDED and if you were lucky to know him you were blessed. In the words of Anthony Hamilton, " If you see me "sleeping"; PASS ME OVER.
MURRAY, I pray to see you on the other side. Love you forever and more.
Cousin Corrie and Uncle Clarence's Crew.

A True Friend
I met Murray in 1995 when he returned home to Alabama from California. Murray and I met while installing floor covering. We have been friends every since. I will miss my friend. Murray was like an older brother. Murray had a gentle, kind, caring and giving spirit. He was a blessing to many and will be missed. I say to the Maye Family let us grieve, but for a short time, then we should rejoice for God sending Murray to be in our lives for a season. Our joys and memories will live on.
May the love of Jesus reside in our hearts.
John 3:16

To the entire Maye Family,
Having grown up within a "block mile" radius, the Maye's and Lawson's were well acquainted. We always called Murray and his brothers the basketball team. What a wonderful family. Now as we say our final farewell, may you draw comfort by remembering the good memories you have shared with Murray.

Sincerely your neighbor,
Mildred Lawson Works

The work family at Wetumpka Post Office, especially the clerks, will truly miss Murray. We always said he was the best driver we have ever had. He was truly a big help to us. Blessings to him and his family. We not only lost a driver but a genuine friend. He was truly a great man.

My memories of Murray Maye were many years ago when I had my 1st plane ride and he came to pick my dad & myself up in his sports car with the top down. I thought I were big time then. I will always remember his smile every time I saw him.
