Dear Dr. Murphy and Family: My sincere condolences for your loss. I have had the blessing of knowing your Family since 1980, when Mary and I met in Graduate School. Dolores was my dentist for several years. I saw Dr. Murphy daily when I worked at Seton Medical Center, and I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Murphy during an Easter celebration in 1988, when Mary invited me as I had no family in the Bay area. Kindness, generosity, love and Family describe your family...and I am so sorry for your loss. Most sincerely, Heidi Bonneau

I will always recall with fondness my times spent with your family growing up. Mrs. Murphy was at the center of all of our activities. Watching over us as we made cookies in the kitchen, or modeled the new outfits we had just sewed. Applauding us as we practiced our St. Stephen's cheers, ever the encourager, telling us that we were great! She was truly a lady - elegant and refined, and I loved her very much. She was so proud of her family - her crowning jewel. Graceful and dignified, she was the epitome of beauty on all levels. My heart goes out to you Dr. Murphy and to all of the family. I am blessed to have known and loved Delores, and to have had her example be, along with my mother's, one that I emulated growing up. I will be praying for all of you as you carry her essence forward. Know that I will always hold her spirit close to my heart.

Dear Dr. Murphy, and Family,
My deepest condolences on Mrs. Murphy going home. You both have a legacy of love, true concern and care in the community. I had the privilege to meet her but a few times at St. Cecilia's Church, however, what I recall vividly are her graciousness and beautiful smile. She struck me as a true lady, someone for me to emulate. God will truly be with you in this time of painful separation. The blessing is, it is not forever. May your eventual family reunion be a heavenly one.
God bless each one of you,
