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 …

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,

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.

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.
