I would like to send my deepest sympathies to the Murphy family during this sad and difficult time of great loss. I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Murphy and her husband years ago at a Revolutionary War reenactment where she and her husband were introduced to me as Grandma and Yo-Yo, as Aj and Dylan are my cherished first cousins. It was quite incredible to be able to participate in the event and even more incredible that she had direct lineage to Patriots who fought for our country. The event occurred quite some years ago yet I remember many details of it. Mostly of course was my excitement to meet my Uncle John’s parents. I remember Mrs. Murphy as being a beautiful and gentle spirit. Kind and humble in nature and always with a smile. Over the years I have seen the love shared between Mrs. Murphy and my Aunt Julianne, Julianne always had such adoration and admiration towards her. She always looked forward to spending time in her beautifully decorated home and truly loved her as her mother. My cousins were proud to call Her their grandmother and looked forward to spending blissful summer days in Maine with her when they were kids. She truly set a high standard of being an excellent Grandmother. The boys were very lucky and never did they take her love for granted. To all members of the Murphy family, I send tremendous hugs and prayers to you. Another angel gained, another twinkle in the night’s sky...

It's been one day since your passing mom and I have never felt this feeling of emptiness and sadness in my whole entire life. I miss you so much that the pain of your absence overwhelms me with such grief that it can't even be measured. I always thought that this house was small but with you being gone it now feels like a mansion of loneliness as I walk from room to room lost, looking for you and not knowing what to do or where to turn. You mean so much to me mom and my selfish thoughts wants me to have you here again, but I know God has decided that you have accomplished what He sent you here to do and now wants you back with Him. You were such a great mother and God loves you so much that he allowed you to pass on peacefully in bed surrounded by your whole loving family and I thank Him for that. I love being your son and I truly look forward that day when I can be with you and dad again for eternity. I love you mom and I will never forget to shake my orange juice. Tim
