PAUL LEO MURRAY March 14, 1935 - October 13, 2005 It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Paul Murray. Paul passed away on October 13, 2005 at the age of 70 after a brief but courageous battle with cancer. Paul was predeceased by his parents, George and Agathe Murray; brothers, Armand and Jean; and sisters, Beatrice and Georgina. Paul will be sadly missed by his loving wife of 44 years Noreen; son Gerry (Denise) with Morgan, daughter Alanna (Todd) Vanderhyde with Tyler, and son Brian. Paul will also be remembered by his brothers, Jacques (Therese), George, David (Emily); and his sisters, Bernice (Guy) Belisle, Jeannette (David) Jordan, Diane (Richard) James. Paul will also be missed by many nieces, nephews, extended family and friends. Paul was born in Starbuck, MB and grew up in the Fannystelle area. He married Noreen in Fannystelle in 1961 and they later moved to Winnipeg where he worked for State Electric for many years. Paul and Noreen were active members in St. Charles Parish until 1998 when they retired to Westbank BC. During the six years they spent in BC, Paul enjoyed gardening, landscaping and creating a beautiful retirement home. Paul was particularly fond of Brian's dog, Skye. Throughout his life, Paul had an appreciation and respect for nature. He especially enjoyed deer hunting and farming. Above all else, Paul was a loving, kind and compassionate man who touched the lives of all who met him. He was a family man in the truest sense of the word. The family would like to thank the staff at the Victoria Hospital for their care. As well, thanks to the staff at St. Boniface Palliative Care Unit for their compassion. A memorial service will be held on Tuesday, October 18 at 1:00 p.m. at St. Charles Parish Hall, 320 St Charles, with interment to follow at Assumption Cemetery and reception in the Parish Hall.
