Passed away peacefully on October 29, 2020. He was born in Peterborough, Ontario on November 23, 1951. Predeceased by his father Harold; he will be greatly missed by his wife, Debbie; brothers, Tom, Doug, Bill; his Mom, Betty, all our family in Ontario and our family in Maui.
Murray’s love and passion for music was one of his most favourite ways to spend his time. The ultimate though was the many, many trips he made with his wife Debbie to Maui. Watching sports together was a favourite cheering on the Blue Jays, or The Toronto Maple Leafs, or his team the Seattle SeaHawks. Murray moved out west in his early twenties and knew this was the place he wanted to be. Murray was so happy having just reached their 30th Anniversary together. Also, a special thank you to all the doctors and nurses and staff at Royal Jubilee Hospital for the loving care given during the last few weeks.

My deepest condolences to the Huddlestone and Sanders families. I liked Murray from the first time I met him, and I could tell how happy he made my dear friend Debbie.

Words cannot describe the sorrow I felt on finding out about Murray’s passing. His generous spirit and warmth was clear to everyone who met him.
