Tracey and I are so sorry for loss and send our deepest condolences. It's funny but I always remember Uncle Murray as having such a unique laugh and it makes me smile. I'm certain there will be plenty of memorable stories shared.

We are so sorry to hear this. Our Deepest Heartfelt Condolences to all of you .
Steven and I will cherish many many great chats with your Dad. He always had a nice wise comment to help us out throughout life. He spent many days working with Steven in the late 70's and 80's when Edwards Carpentry was a thing. Steven and I have always enjoying running into him . And hearing all about his adventures out west, his camping trips, all about how his kids were doing and growing, his new truck or his new wheels. He will always have a special spot in our hearts .

'Mr. Morrow' as he was always referred to, was an absolute favourite to run into. Carter and I loved to chat with him and shared many a wonderful story and memories of Inez, chevy chevettes, farming, our families and kerns gossip. He was a treasure and we pray that your memories and thoughts of him will bring you comfort in the days and weeks ahead.
Blessings Carter & Jennifer Seymour

My deepest condolences to each and every one of you and your partners and families in the passing of a father and grandfather. Having lived only a mile north of the Morrow farm I would often run into Murray at various functions and usually had a chat with him. I know he will be missed by each of you in a special way. Rest in Peace Murray

We were saddened to learn of Murray’s passing.
We had a good visit with Murray and Gertie just days ago.
We have such fond memories of our farming days when Murray and Ken would help each other with crops or anything that needed an extra hand. Our visits back and forth were so enjoyable.

Barb, Kevin, Kim, Gertie &family

My sincerest sympathies on the loss of your Dad and husband. From conversations with Barb It seems to me that he was a colourful character who kept everyone on their toes. Enjoy the memories.

Another family stalwart gone.
I remember our working in the hay days( not Hey Days ) long hot work, great meals (maybe some ketchup) early to bed and back at it early the next day! He pushed us and we are better for it! Then he sells the farm and begins his nomadic travel phase. Boy did he love those trips West and in later years camping in whatever new unit was now the Best! Hope you campfires are warm, the music good and the Mom and Aunt Verda keep you on the straight and narrow! No more pain…Rest in peace knowing you are missed and loved by family and many more!
