Murray was born in Neguac, NB on August 20, 1925. He was the son of Robert and Kathleen (MacKnight) Price and was the last surviving member of his family.
Dad was a hard working man from a young age. He proudly served his country in the Merchant Navy 1939-1945, sailing from Vancouver. He then worked for CNR for 38 years 7 months. M.R. as he was known by many, loved all things nature-fishing, hunting, his camp and walking. M.R. was a Legion #19 Branch member for 75 years.
Dad (alias Pappy), had a sweet tooth like no other for fudge, chocolate and suckers; the last of which he enjoyed from great-grandson Seth McLean.
Murray is survived by his daughter June, son-in-law Cecil Aucoin, granddaughter Karla (Corey McLean), grandson Steven and awesome great-grandson Seth. He was predeceased by his wife Maxine in 2015.
