Michael Murphy Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Mike was always the life of the party. He always made time for anyone in need no matter what he was already busy with whether it was working on a roof or doing fun (honey do) projects with his wife. He loved watching his kids grow up to be the wonderful young men they are today.
From supporting one of his son's desire and talents in music to watching his other two sons play football and lacrosse. Mike was at every game and every concert. Mike's own love for music has been with him his entire life. He was his happiest when just sitting around singing and listening to songs. We all know his love for baseball, the Cubbies and Ryne Sandberg.
Luckily Kim put her foot down or else their son Ryno's middle name would have been Wrigley. Any baseball movie was always a go to for entertainment, with his favorite being "For Love of the Game". Mike's boisterous personality, joyful laughter and willingness to lend a hand will be constant memories in our hearts for years to come.
In addition to his parents, survivors include his wife Kimberly McIsaac Bornt Murphy; sons, Zacheri McIsaac, Christian Murphy and Ryne Murphy; and brother Dr. James Murphy and wife, Natalie
.
A service to celebrate his life will be held at 2 PM Friday, April 5 at James Funeral Home. Visitation will follow.
James Funeral Home of Huntersville is serving the family.

This one brought tears to my eyes... Remembering all the times I saw him or chatted with him at Lowe´s about everything roofing-related, his orders, or even when we messed up a delivery and he´d just laugh and say it was okay. He was kind, caring, and cool with everyone. He always made time to talk, no matter how busy he was. He will be truly missed by the industry, Lowe´s, and the world... one of the good ones.
