Obituary

Joan Louise Murray (Sutton) beloved wife of the late Charles J. Murray (1998), of Lucknow, passed away peacefully at home on Sunday May 10, 2020 with her family by her side at the age of 79. She was born on July 3, 1940 to the late Pearl (Grover) and Lymn Sutton. Dear Mother of Paul (Carrie) of Ripley, Brian (Karen) of Langside, Wayne (Judy) of Ripley, Grant (Karen) of Ripley, Donald (Barb) of Holyrood, Charles (Sally) of Lucknow, Joanne (Derek) Beishuizen of Ripley, Elizabeth “Betty-Anne” (Troy) Briggs of Warner, Australia. Also greatly missed by 24 grandchildren and 13 great grandchildren. Survived by siblings Cecil (Wilma) Sutton of Ripley, Bud Sutton of Amherstburg, BC, Gary (Donna) Sutton of Lucknow, Jean (Alan) Gilmore of Ottawa and John (Debbie) Sutton of Teeswater. Sister-in-law of Bernice Murray of Walkerton, Eleanor Kraemer of Kinloss, Amelia Murray of Harriston, Gerald (Nancy) Murray of Holyrood, Barbara (Doug) Schmid of Toronto and Elaine Fisher of Exeter. Predeceased by infant daughter Mary Julia, sister Ruth (Jan) Bruinooge, brother Charles Sutton, and in-laws Veronica (Keith) McCarter, Frank Murray, Leo (Imelda) Murray, Lorne Kraemer, Alphonse “Ab” (Gloria) Murray, Margaret Anne “Marty” ( Robert) Dales, John Murray and Donald Fisher. Joan’s greatest joy was spending time with her grandchildren and great grandchildren and keeping up with all of their activities. She was a life-long member of the Women’s Institute and also enjoyed helping and visiting with the Legion Ladies. Each minute spent with the Ukulele Group was always special to her. Due to present restrictions there will be a private family service and a larger celebration of Joan’s life will be held at a later date.

Message from Joan Murphy-Walker2020-05-18 12:37:06

As children growing up in St.Marys, ON, we visited Teeswater and the Murrays many a summer with our mother, Eleanor (Thompson) Murphy.  Then when we left home and had our own families, we would always go back to Teeswater for the ‘Old Boys Reunion’.

I only have memories of fun and laughter with my mothers’s friends - - the extensive Murray family.  I remember Joan, because we shared a beautiful name.

I have such fond memories of Joan and Charlie. They were great neighbours on the 10th and friends of my Mom & Dad.  I had the privilege of babysitting the whole gang from time to time.  Some late nights, lots of laughs, and very, very busy times.  Joan will be missed greatly.  I so look forward to when we can get together to share stories of "the good ol' days".  In the meantime, my family's thoughts are with you all.  Ruth (Eckenswiller) McDonald
