Goodbye Murray

🙏🏻
was in the wrong vehicle last year
for my x-🇨🇦 YYC to YFC and back cruising
and stopping in to visit as the best-route roads to Murray’s place were all dug up ☹️
and I did not go a selfish direction and ask him to venture out to meet me somewhere along my paved-path as I kinda felt he was perhaps not up to it at the time.
Hind-sight now as I am in the Sierra for this year’s maritime experience, that it will now be a return trip west through the states next week.
🙏🏻
Had many virtual interactions with “the Man ..” (personal reference some may relate to) and I do have some sweet treasures of his that he auctioned for CCF fundraising. I appreciate the authentic Dale Earnhardt #3 signature along with 2 other very special ones. More appreciative is knowing what I do know of Murray’s career/life with so many stories that remained to be heard …
Godspeed my friend …
🥲🙏🏻

I’ve been asked if there is any formal announcement so that some of his other forum friends can post their condolences to his family.
I have not seen a formal announcement and have searched Ont. obits looking. As @Nik posted the date, maybe he has more info on this..

Spence.. I had forgotten all about Murray’s auction donations.
He had plenty of automotive pictures and collectables from his time as racing writing in some auto publications.
He was always sharing his information,

Sorry to hear of Murray's passing. We had some great conversations over the past few years since I have been a member. Always enjoyed his posts on the various topics. Condolences to his family and friends. Rest easy my friend.
 
RIP Murray.. you are a good man, will miss the phone calls, and the periodic meet ups, and the cruises we joined in pre covid.
you put on a strong face and battled as best you could. condolences to Wendy and the family.
Murray was a standup guy, he did for others before he looked after himself. :Angelsad2:

Hey Walleye. Thanks. Murray spoke of you often. Our connection solidified after Brenda and I had the opportunity to spend some time with him and Wendy in 2018. Great people. I too miss him. :Angelsad2:
 
You can tell how great a person was through his many friends and their thoughts and Murray had a large circle of friends here on this forum and through his many activities past and present. I only got to speak with him once, not long before he passed. Wished I had been to Ontario sooner so I could meet with him in person. We are all a little bit richer for having known him but a little bit poorer now for his passing. My most sincere condolences to his family and many friends. Hopefully he is now reunited with his black Z06 and is mashing that peddle. I know I am going to miss his posts.
