Bob Murphy
March 30, 1943 – March 30,
2022
It is with great sadness that we
announce the passing of our father, grandfather, brother, and friend,
Bob Murphy. On March 26, a few days before his 79th
birthday,
Bob left this world to join his beloved
wife Dolly, parents Tom and Violet Murphy, and brother Tommy
(Tucker).
Bob is survived by his three children
Colette (Steve), Bobby (Leigh), and Derm (Tristan). Also left to mourn
are his four sisters Kay (Harry), Shirley, Maureen (Gary), and Dot. He
is also survived by his five wonderful grandchildren Ryan, Sarah,
Madeleine, Beckett, and Shea, all of whom he loved
dearly.
Bob loved watching sports, especially
hockey and baseball. He was an avid fan of the Toronto Blue Jays, and
was ecstatic when they won the World Series back-to-back in 1992 and
1993. He was an artistic soul and had an amazing ability with numbers,
both of which were passed along to his
children.
Bob had a cheeky and impish nature, and
loved a good debate. Quick witted and sharp tongued, he always had a
soft heart and felt love for everyone.
A celebration of his life will be held
at Maher’s Funeral Home, Placentia on Saturday, April 9,
2022 from noon to 4pm. Inurnment to follow at Holy Rosary Cemetery,
Freshwater.
Our most sincere sympathies to the family and friends of Robert Bob Murphy 1943 2022..
Death notice for the town of: Placentia, Province: T-N
