My Uncle Murray was always someone who made you feel good. His fun, care free and kind hearted personality always made me smile. He took the time to call me on my birthdays and other days when he just wanted to say hello and see how I was doing. That meant the world to me. He was loved by many, many people. I will miss him dearly. We all will. My mother, Myrna and my brother Patrick and his family, also extend their deepest sympathies to Kay, Allen Scott, Matthew and Deanna. Uncle Murray you will never be forgotten. I would like to think you are with Dad in Heaven, smiling down. Love, Shannon, Myrna, Patrick, Kristine and Kelsi Queen.

My condolences to Murray's family. I have known Murray for many years from my days working at Peach's By The Park and through the Canadian Pool League. While I hadn't seen Murray as much over the past few years, when we did happen to meet, it was as if no time had passed. He will be truly missed. He's among some great friends and pool players now, and I'm sure the pool game continues on. Our thoughts are with you.

I have had the pleasure of meeting Murry many years ago working with Allen . My first impression was his genuine love for his children and the affection he showed towards Allen. and how much they both loved each others company . Murry was so kind to me and his sense of humor was a lot like mine so we got along just fine . over the years i have talked and met Murry many times and it is always a pleasure to talk and joke with him . I feel sad for the familys loss and my thoughts go out to them all . Charlie Rowe

So sorry to hear of the passing of "Mo". We had so many laughs and talks over the years, and he will be missed. He was indeed a very unique "character" who everyone loved. Wishing the very best to Kay and hope that the many memories of Mo will help her in this sad time.
