Mom was born to John and Doris Murray (nee Sparks) on March 23, 1942. She was raised in Winnipeg, MB and was the last surviving immediate member of the Murray family.
Her spirit is infinite - Mom will lovingly and forever live on in the hearts she left behind.

You were immensely proud of me and so was I of you, Mom. Thank you for your treasured life lessons.
Above all, be the heroine of your life, not the victim - Nora Ephron.
She was indeed.

I worked with Margaret at SAAN stores for almost 10 years she was a great manager and friend. We had many laughs and talks about our Family , I wish I would have kept in contact after she left SAANS we had ran into each other occasionally, so sorry for your loss Tanis your mom was a very special person. She will be dearly missed. - Posted by: Connie Miller (Co worker) on: Aug 17, 2023

So sad to hear of Margaret's passing especially as I just found out of Bud's passing away recently too. I was friends with Tanis for a long time and had visited their home on many occasions and found Margaret a warm and funny person to be around, she had an infectious laugh and was full of life. She enjoyed getting away to the cottage with bud. Unfortunately for me, I had lost contact with the family many years ago but occasionally would drive by their house and had thought of dropping in to say hello, I now wish I had done just that. My loss completely. Sincere condolences to Tanis and to everyone who had the pleasure of spending one moment with her and realizing that she was a special person. - Posted by: john baillie (family friend) on: Aug 15, 2023
