I have no words. We went to school together, attended the same church (Ridgely-Marydel charge), sang in same choir and sunday school. I'm just at a loss. That big ol wide smile will surely be missed...kiss the Elders for me. I know Ms. Casey and Mr. Guy will be excited to see you again. Enjoy the other side my friend.

Mr. Murray I'm grateful we were able to reconnect through Facebook and laugh about the fun we had working at Milford. Your smile, huge personality and love of scrapple will never be forgotten. Rest in peace my friend...
