I can remember Jim for as far back as I can remember. I recall a time when all the Murphys were together ..... all the time and later at every reunion. Jim and Joan were always loving, funny and kind. After we lost Joan and as the years passed and the family spread out ..... Jim moving to Florida .... there was never a time that my mother and Uncle Bob missed an opportunity to visit Florida and spend some quality time with him. Those 17 third generation double first cousin Murphy's were powerful in mind, spirit and heart. They were fearless and knew how to have a good time. There are just two out of the 17 left and for as heartbreaking as that is I find some consolation picturing the reunion up in heaven with 15 of the 17 ....... not sure God's ready for that! He will be missed and remembered forever. Peace be unto his closest family and friends.

With love,
Kathy
