Clifford M. Murray, Jr., age 96, of Telford, entered into heavenly rest on Thursday, December 18, 2025. He was the beloved husband of the late Jane (Kindig) Murray, with whom he shared over 57 years of marriage. He was a lifetime resident of Souderton, PA.

He was born August 9, 1929, in Sellersville, PA, and was the son of the late Clifford M., Sr. and Stella (Nice) Murray.

He was a beloved father, grandfather and great grandfather, and is survived by his daughters, Colleen J. Bonham, Cathleen M. Patterson, and Patricia M.

He is also survived by his sister, Patricia M. Conti. He was predeceased by sons-in-law, Roger D. Bonham and Robert L. Patterson, Jr.

Cliff was a 1947 graduate of Souderton Area High School. He served in the United States Army in the Korean War. He was a faithful lifelong member of Zwingli U.C.C., Souderton, PA. His employment began at Louis Goldsmith Co. in Souderton. His career then began and continued, alongside his family members, at Conti's Cross Keys Inn, Doylestown, PA, and with Pipersville Tavern, Pipersville, PA.
