  1. We loved and laughed, we fought and cried, then we went our separate ways. Throughout our time together I never ceased to admire the way you dealt with the trials that life sent your way. You met hardship and tragedy head on, dealt with it and moved on to the next challenge. You have more than earned your rest. Sleep well. Janis

  2. Oh Murphy, the special place where each of us hold you with great affection will never be empty – you’ll be there always and every reminder will be brim-full of happy memory and admiration for your indominable spirit, your big grin and wholehearted laugh, your determination, your wit, and the lingering pleasure of having had you in our life.
