Condolences to Marilyn & Family on the passing of Murray. I played rugby with Murray at JHHS and he trained a few winners for our syndicate. Always approachable and good company, will be sadly missed.

So sorry to hear of Murray’s passing. I’m a second cousin of Murray. Although later didn’t have so much contact I shared lovely family times with Murray in younger days. Thinking of you all on your loss. Regards Barbara MacDonald née Pearson.

Rest in peace uncle Murray, I have fond memories of visiting your house having a beer and cracking a joke. Plus loved talking about and watching his horses over the years. Big hugs and love to Marilyn, Craig, Shelly and the family
