Murry worked for many years as an electronics communications technician for the Province of NB, retiring in 1999 to return to the island.
He enjoyed fishing, hunting and boating of any kind, but his real loves were piloting a small-engine plane and his ham radios. Whether chatting with other operators in the four corners of the earth, offering communication solutions to members of his operators’ club, or tearing out the fuses and transistors to repair a faulty unit, his radio workshop was Murry’s favorite place to be.

Murray was predeceased by his sister Geraldine.
