Did you ever meet up with the same person over the years and even though not close friends you always seem to run into each other? Marcel Murdock was like that and he always had a smile and would take the time to talk about life. I miss his smile and his laugh. - Posted by: Chris Halliday (A friend ) on: Jan 12, 2015

I remember meeting Marcel for the first time. He was very friendly, and asked, among other things, if I and my family were Christians. I was just remembering when I first learned of his horrifically tragic passing; just over a year ago now. I mourn. - Posted by: Daniel Robbins (Friend) on: Aug 23, 2012
