James Forrest McMurray

A fine upstanding man! A great positive person in all regards.

Jim was one of the nicest people I have ever met. His calm demeanor was always so impressive to me. I always enjoyed playing a round of golf with Jim as his flow of compliments just made you feel special. He was just a tremendous family man that leaves a great legacy with his beautiful daughters and grandkids. He will sorely be missed by so many. I was lucky to call him a friend

I shared the news of Jim´s passing with several friends down here in Florida. Personally I have many fond memories mostly around golf with Jim or parties with our spouses and coworkers.
But what I wanted to share here is the respect Jim had as a professional. Tom Baluk a long time Ford Motor executive asks me to share his thoughts about Jim with his friends and family. When I mentioned Jim´s passing he said to me while teary eyed that "Jim McMurray was the best sale professional he ever dealt with at Ford Motor Company!"

We went on a cruise with Kathy & Jim in 1983. What a blast! The Mc Murray Halloween parties were also legendary. My favorite times with Jim were on the golf course at Barton Hills. We were partners in the Member-Member Tourney for four years. We never won, but we had so much fun. Playing with our dogs Dinglehoofer and Ginny in Hough Park. I am so glad we got to spend time watching the Tigers on T.V. from 336 back in October. Jim was always great to be around. He will be missed. Bob & Debbie Wendland
