GABRIEL NIKOLA MURUVE
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Dr. Gabriel Muruve at the age of 93. Dr. Muruve died peacefully in his home surrounded by family and with the love of his life Noella at his side.
Dr. Muruve was the first of his family to immigrate to Canada in 1957 to complete his training in Pediatrics at McGill University in Montreal. After arriving to Canada, he married Noella in 1962, and the young couple inspired a wave of family members to follow in their footsteps. A Chief Resident job at the Children’s Hospital led them to Winnipeg where they settled and raised their family.
Dr. Muruve was a very respected and compassionate person and physician. Dr. Muruve was one of the first partners at the Manitoba Clinic where he practiced Pediatric Medicine for more than 50 years. He touched thousands of lives during his career, helping many children and families in Manitoba. His patients loved him and appreciated his commonsense approach to medicine as well as his sharp clinical acumen.
Dr. Muruve had a healthy life filled with family, friends, travel, and the outdoors. He had a tremendous sense of humour and his stories and experiences were legendary. His final words were “I have no regrets. I have done all that I wanted in life.”.
Dr. Muruve is survived by Noella, his three sons Nicolas (Carolyn George), Daniel (Suzanne Gaultier), Richard, and his eight grandchildren. He will be truly missed but his legacy will live on in his family and all those he mentored and cared for during his lifetime.
The family would like to thank Dr. Bruce Martin for his care and compassion during Dr. Muruve’s last few months.
The family will be holding a private celebration of his life. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Harvest Manitoba.
