Parcourez la nécrologie de Father Kim Murray October 31 1952 July 26 2024 résidant dans la province Colombie britanique pour le détail des funérailles.
Father Kim Murray died on July 6, 2024 shortly after admission to Victoria Hospice, following a six-month struggle with congestive heart failure whilst living at home. Born with cerebral palsy, Kim spent his last 4 years wheelchair-bound after one fall too many.
After earning an M. Div. from Trinity College, Toronto, Kim began his church ministry at St. John’s Anglican Church, Edmonton. He married Janet in 1979, and a year later they started the parish of St. Margaret’s, Edmonton, which is still going strong.
Kim completed his Ph.D. in church history from Durham, UK whilst working at St. John’s the Divine, Victoria. Subsequent postings in BC included Parksville and Salt Spring Island. Kim is survived by wife Janet of 44 years, and greyhound Shadow. He will be deeply missed by his many relatives, friends and parishioners.
Taking early retirement in 2008 enabled the Murrays to continue their love of travel, mainly with repeated trips to New Zealand, and to pursue volunteer work. Kim was a great cook and storyteller, usually at the same time. Upon moving back to Victoria in 2016, Kim volunteered on his condo strata council, and became an Honorary Assistant at St. Barnabas Church. Many thanks to Dr. J. Aiken and the Hospice Home Respite Team for all their support.
A Requiem Mass of Kim’s life will be celebrated at St. Barnabas Anglican Church, 1525 Begbie St., Victoria, on September 6 at 2p.m.
In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to BC Cancer Agency: 2410 Lee Avenue, Victoria BC V8R 6V5.
